Be sure and gas up in Marblemount or Twisp.
Also make sure it’s open over the passes. :-)

Even just driving the North Cascades Highway without stopping is worth doing, but you’ll want to stop in Newhalem and learn about the region. Have a little adventure at the dams, and be sure to hike up Thunder Creek a ways (trailhead in Colonial Creek campground).
The spectacular scenery starts outside the east end of the official recreation area, culminating at Rainy and Washington passes.
Worth visiting!
Ab-so-lutely.
