If you’re heading to DNR-managed lands in Kittitas or Yakima counties this Fourth of July weekend, please be aware of a new road closure in the Naneum Ridge State Forest due to flood damage.
The East Fork Coleman Road (N3300) is temporarily closed from milepost 2.2 to milepost 2.8. Past the 2.8 milepost, you can access the N3300 road from the Rue Road (N3100).
