of debris in the White River Canyon which subsequently flows down and overwhelms the highway. This washout, the worst in memory, cut off access to Mount Hood Meadows in both directions, moved the White River course north and east to the bed of Green Apple Creek, and buried—sometimes 20–30 feet deep—two recreational parking lots, miles of cross-country skiing and hiking trails, and several small Forest Service roads. Repair work was anticipated to be completed by December 15, 2006. The route was reopened December 9, a week ahead of schedule.
