The Pine Pass on Highway 97 between Prince George and Chetwynd, which was closed by an avalanche on Sunday, has reopened.
The avalanche covered the highway, about 70 kilometres south of Chetwynd, with as much as two metres of avalanche debris.
Avalanche technicians mobilized overnight, assessed the alpine area by helicopter, triggered additional avalanches to clear the snow pack and determined the area is safe for workers and motorists, said the Ministry of Transportation.
The road is now open to single-lane alternating traffic. Motorists can expect delays of up to 20
minutes.
