West Twin Creek Crossing

Before the severe storm of November 6, 2006, West Twin Creek flowed through two large culverts (or corrugated metal pipes) under the Hoh Road.

Both culverts, 9-feet and 6-feet in diameter, became plugged by storm debris, causing West Twin Creek to overflow the road and erode it away, creating a 75 foot long and 25 foot deep washout.

The washout is now spanned by a temporary one-lane bridge.

The temporary bridge will be in place until a permanent repair can be completed. Installation of a permanent two-lane bridge is proposed for later this year or next. The park is currently seeking initial public input on this proposal to help define the range of issues that should be considered in an environmental assessment scheduled for release this spring.
