Like much of the Olympic Peninsula, Olympic National Park has received significant rainfall in recent days. Flooding in many areas has led to numerous road closures. Park staff will conduct damage assessments when conditions allow and will work to reopen roads as soon as it is safe to do so.
The following roads are currently closed because of storm impacts.
Hurricane Ridge Road - closed due to rocks on the road
Elwha Valley - The Olympic Hot Springs Road is closed at the Elwha entrance station due to flooding.

Dosewallips and Staircase Roads all remain closed due to previous damage and unsafe conditions. The Deer Park Road is closed for the season.
The Sol Duc Road, Kalaloch and Lake Crescent areas remain open, but travel is not recommended at this time because of heavy rain, limited visibility and the risk of flooding and rockfall.
