According to Washington State Trooper Chelsea Hodgson, the road was blocked for about half an hour while crews cleared the road. No one was injured in the accident.
A second accident occurred minutes after the logs were cleared from the first one. Again, there were no injuries in the second collision, but cleaning crews needed to clear logs a second time.
