Nisqually entrance to Mount Rainier to reopen

SEATTLE —

Officials at Mount Rainier National Park are ready to reopen the Nisqually entrance at Kautz Creek after flooding closed the road earlier this month.

The road is scheduled to reopen at 6 a.m. Friday.

Heavy rains sent Kautz Creek over its banks, and flooded the road in the park's southwest corner. Park crews dug a new channel to divert water from the road and into two new culverts.
