奥林匹克国家公园拆除Quinault临时桥：冬季前往Graves Creek改走南岸路
美国国家公园管理局宣布，华盛顿州奥林匹克国家公园（Olympic National Park）连接 Quinault 北岸路与南岸路的临时桥已于10月22日拆除，今冬前往 Graves Creek 一带的游客须改走南岸路（South Shore Road）。该消息由公园管理局位于 Port Angeles 的公共事务办公室于10月16日发布。
据公园管理局说明，这座临时桥跨越的涵洞在冬季风暴与高水位期间风险较高，因此在风险最高的季节到来前拆除桥体，待高风险期过后恢复通行；拆除后 Graves Creek 区域仍可经南岸路抵达。
奥林匹克国家公园面积近100万英亩，拥有70多英里的海岸线，集冰川山地、原始温带雨林与野性海岸于一体，Quinault 一带是其温带雨林景观的代表区域。园方提醒冬季自驾游客出发前查询最新路况，雨季行经南岸路时留意路面与天气变化。
Olympic National Park Removes Temporary Quinault Bridge: Winter Access to Graves Creek Shifts to South Shore Road
The National Park Service has removed the temporary bridge connecting Quinault North Shore Road and South Shore Road at Olympic National Park in Washington State, effective October 22. Visitors heading to the Graves Creek area this winter will use South Shore Road instead. The park's Public Affairs Office in Port Angeles released the announcement on October 16.
According to the Park Service, the temporary bridge spans a culvert considered vulnerable to winter storms and high-water events, so the structure is removed ahead of the highest-risk season and access restored after that period passes. The Graves Creek area remains accessible via South Shore Road.
Olympic National Park encompasses nearly one million acres and more than 70 miles of wild coastline, combining glacier-capped mountains, old-growth temperate rain forest and rugged Pacific shore; the Quinault area is among its signature rain-forest landscapes. The park advises winter drivers to check current road conditions before setting out and to watch for changing weather along South Shore Road in the rainy season.
