Reviewing. Courcelles (talk) 14:41, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

" May 18, 1980, eruption" Don't think we need this comma.
- I don't like it either, but I'm just following MOS:DATE and MOS:COMMA.
"The highway crosses over the river on the Coal Bank Bridge" DO we have a citation for the name of the bridge?
- Not seeing one for the modern bridge, but I am going off Google Maps here.
"visitors center" Don't we need an apostrophe here? Visitors'? You've got several others like this, but I'm not 100% certain of the change, ether.
- Swapped to the non-plural form, but various newspapers up here use the non-apostrophe plural form.
"The remaining section of the highway within Columbia National Forest was improved and paved by the federal Bureau of Public Roads for $1.2 million" When? And if we do know when, then we cna inflate the currency.
- Added date and conversion.
"The state legislature approved an extension of SSH 1R into the national forest, by then renamed to Gifford Pinchot National Forest, in 1961.[35] Construction on the timberline highway began in 1959 and was completed in September 1962" Call me confused, if the legislature didn't approve it until 1961, how did it start in 1959?
- Re-arranged to be a bit more clear. Legislatures don't extend routes until the actual road is built, generally, but does need to fund them in the first place.
"at a cost of $11 million" Use the inflation template, please.
- Fixed.
"An evacuation of the area was ordered in early October " October what year?
- Year and duration added.

That's all that I see. Courcelles (talk) 14:56, 24 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
