If you can drive in the snow you're fine.

Thanks. It’s all gouache! I watered it down a tad to create the sky.

Similar problem regarding the trail head I live near... their response was to put 'No Parking' signs and 'Trail Head' signs that show a pedestrian with a backpack along the side of the road. Signs that people completely ignore. It's 50 mph. And often the problem isn't the lot being full... its that people park on the side of the road because they don't have a discover pass and worry they'll get ticketed.
I don't have an answer... I'm just chiming in to complain.

He kidnaps and tortures women and is currently using dating apps. Ladies, please be vigilant.

Lovely. Great depth of color. Is that all gouache or is there some watercolor in there?

Sounds like WSDOT either needs to restrict parking to the lot only, or lower the speed through that section. My understanding of how old school highway safety works is, "if we have enough accidents on a section of road, then we might change something", but a DOT's primary remit is to make traffic flow faster.
You might want to contact Senator Sharon Shewmake, she is involved with traffic safety. Also contact your local representatives.

You're right, bitching on Reddit is more effective than parking in the designated area only.

That is unlikely to be obeyed by people. So are we saying lets not do anything about it, and let people get killed because they parked in the wrong spot?

Absolutely, it's a great option for a winter hike since it's in the shadow of the Olympics. Not a super eventful walk since it's pretty much the same view the whole way, but if you love the water then it's worth it. It's better to try to time it to not hike at hike tide so you have more space to spread out.

The parking lot is limited for this short hike and is situated along a 2 lane highway where the speed limit is 60. Trail users should park in the lot, not directly on the highway to avoid dangerous situations. As others noted, if the designated parking lot is full for any hike, it's highly recommended to find another hike. Cheers.

What kind of a car are you driving? If the pass is clear, no problem but if there is snow or ice🤷🏻♀️. In the winter I drive a 4Runner with traction tires for the pass,Snoqualmie. I never drive over Stevens Pass, many, many deaths there. Better to drive SNO and Blewett Pass. Start looking at the Washdot website or app for current mountain pass conditions. They are usually accurate. Snowed on tne pass yesterday 🤷🏻♀️

If you try to take the Stuart ridge trail to colchuk you have to pay to park there. It’s unfortunately going to happen all over the state I’m sure since people flock to any spot posted on tik tok.
