I rode the majority of the route through Washington in 2018. Parts were clogged with mud and another section blocked with a wall of tumbleweed at the time. I had to cross the Columbia River on I-5 at 4:30am to avoid traffic as there is no shoulder on part of the bridge. Despite its incompleteness, the trail is amazing and is a treasure. Improvements keep coming and the Beverly Bridge over the Columbia is scheduled to be finished in 2021, as is are the bridges at Renslow and Takoa. Progress is being made.

We owe it to future generations to help make this happened. https://www.railstotrails.org/greatamericanrailtrail/ https://palousetocascadestrail.org/
