WHATCOM COUNTY, Wash. – It looks like the last stretch of the Mount Baker Highway will be open in time for late summer visits to Artist Point.
The final 2.7 miles of State Route 542 has been closed while crews work to stabilize and rebuild a crumbling retaining wall.
The wall built in the 1930’s sits above the Heather Meadows Visitor Center, Chain Lakes Loop trailhead and Austin Pass Picnic area.
The Department of Transportation says the work should allow the road to re-open sometime in August.
It will be closed again in the winter as the road becomes part of the Mount Baker Ski Area’s terrain.

One would think that a car crash would be a pretty open and shut case. The car crashes, and the person is either dead or standing around waiting for help. Incidents like these don’t seem to immediately lend themselves to the realm of unsolved mysteries, and they seem like they would be pretty easy to get to the bottom of. Yet, there have been many mysterious car crashes that have proven to be more than that. Here we have vehicles that have crashed and been proven to spin cryptic mysteries of vanishings and deaths that have yet to be solved.
