Four state highways reach the park and the National Park Service runs the roads inside it. What each one does in winter, from the agencies that run them.
SR 706 ends at the Nisqually entrance. Inside the park the road continues to Longmire and then Paradise, at 5,400 feet. The Park Service plows it in winter but closes it at night, and every vehicle must carry tire chains from November 1 to May 1, whatever the weather that day. Paradise averages 640 inches of snow a year.
SR 410 over Chinook Pass (5,430 feet) and SR 123 over Cayuse Pass (4,675 feet) close every winter for avalanche danger and reopen in late May, depending on the snow. In 2025 WSDOT closed both on October 24. Sunrise Road, which leaves SR 410 at the White River entrance, usually opens in late June or early July and closes in late September or early October.
US 12 over White Pass (4,500 feet) is the year-round route along the south side of the park, between Packwood and Naches. WSDOT posts chain requirements there in storms. A two-year project repaving 19 miles of US 12 east and west of the pass started in July 2026, so expect work zones in the list below.
The Park Service says there is no public access to Carbon River or Mowich Lake from SR 165. The WSDOT closure on SR 165 shows on the map as a red marker.
The cameras and alerts above are the stationary view, the feeds you would check before you leave. In the MileCheck app the nearest camera and your exact mile marker follow you up the road, hands-free on CarPlay and Android Auto, and the mile marker works without a signal.
The Park Service posts the status of every park road on its road status page. Closures on the state highways around the park show on the map above as red markers, from WSDOT, and in the closures list under it.
From November 1 to May 1 every vehicle entering the park must carry tire chains, and rangers can require them on the road above Longmire. The Longmire and Paradise cameras above show the road surface.
SR 410 over Chinook Pass, SR 123 over Cayuse Pass and Sunrise Road close every winter. The road to Longmire and Paradise stays open by day. US 12 over White Pass and SR 7 to Elbe stay open. Check the road closures map for the rest of the state.
That is a different question from whether the road is open. The visibility page reads the cloud ceilings between you and the summit and answers it for Seattle, Tacoma and the rest of the region, with a three-day forecast.
The Paradise, Longmire and Sunrise cameras are National Park Service webcams and refresh about every minute. The highway cameras are WSDOT. Wildfires come from the national NIFC feed. Tap any camera on the map, or in the list, to see its latest frame. See every highway camera for the rest of your route.
Whether the road is open and whether you can see the mountain are different questions. The visibility page reads the cloud ceilings between you and the summit and answers the second one for Seattle, Tacoma and the rest of the region, with a three-day forecast.
