Information About

Washington State Route 504




Previous to the May 18 , 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens, S.R. 504 ran alongside the North Fork of the Toutle River to end at Spirit Lake, but this course was rendered impassable due to the Lahar s that followed the eruption. From the community of Toutle , the course of this highway was later relaid several hundred feet above the river valley. East of Toutle, where it enters the Gifford Pinchot National Forest , there is only one gas station, and no Cell Phone coverage.
