Did a little research on mountain pass closures.

I decided to query the local WSDOT office out in Wenatchee, and the director replied back with the information I needed. For anyone interested in doing winter driving through the mountains, the link is below.

WSDOT Mountain Pass Closure Data for North Cascades.

Looks like SR20 closes around mid-November on a regular basis.

As an aside, I figured out why my car felt like it was riding on koosh balls. The tires had been inflated up to only 30 PSI at the dealer, so it was super squishy. I reinflated them to between 33 and 35 at work, and it feels so much more solid now.

This just made me feel old.  My child of the 90's self wants to think it impossible for one to not know what they are...

I was born in 90 and I played with these, but I did not know the name.
