16 miles to JCT US-2/US-97, but US-97 probably not signed because we’re on the alternate right here anyway, and therefore technically already ON US-97.

Reassurance shield past some little road. \Neat shield I wish I had a better picture of, “Alternate” is spelled out inside.

JCT US-2 coming up here in 3/4 of a mile. 97’s also right up here, but it’s unsigned right now.

West 2/South 97 will turn right here pretty quick and head out to Stevens and Blewett Passes respectively

Location: ALT US-97 and US-2, Wenatchee

2 West/97 south exits, 2 East/97 North will here in a minute. 97 North is not signed from this approach for obvious reasons (we’ve been running parallel to 97 for about 40 miles, no reason for any traveler to need to get on it). Instead we get the TO 28, which is the main route to I-90 and Spokane from here
