Annual Horse Lake Road Closure Effective December 1

Chelan County's road department is closing access to Horse Lake Road for the season on Wednesday, December 1. This is an annual closure and is coordinated amongst several entities including the Chelan PUD and Chelan Douglas Land Trust.

"That road is very susceptible to damage during the winter months through traffic there and takes quite a bit to repair in the following spring," said Commissioner Bob Bugert. "It is also to protect the overwintering mule deer for the Horse Lake area."

Oklahoma Gulch Road near Entiat will also be closed for the season for the same reasons.
