Will roads like the Jack Pass Road, Beckler River Road and the Index-Galena Road that access popular trailheads (i.e., Quartz Creek, Blanca Lake) be closed by the Wild Sky Wilderness proposal?
No. These roads will NOT be closed by the Wilderness proposal. Roads accessing popular trailheads like Blanca Lake and the Quartz Creek Trail were never proposed for inclusion in the Wilderness. The Index-Galena Road and North Fork Skykomish Road (FS Road #63) and Beckler River Road and the Jack Pass Road (FS Road #65) are all outside of the proposal and public access will not be affected by the Wild Sky Wilderness.
