Completed construction work will allow a pair of roads to reopen in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Forest Road 99 was open by Wednesday, and Forest Road 25 was set to open at 7 a.m. today, according to the forest service.
Sections of both roads were closed for culvert replacement projects. Forest Road 25 stretches from Swift Reservoir to Randle on the west side of the Gifford Pinchot forest. Forest Road 99 connects Forest Road 25 to Windy Ridge in the Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument. The forest headquarters is in Vancouver.
