The scenery is best once you get close to Leavenworth, though overall it's pretty nice. Route 2 is in good shape, overall, though mostly 2-lane, so it can get really busy and slow on the weekends. My most recent ride of it was on a Friday in July, late morning to early afternoon. The road really did get quite busy east-bound later in the day. West-bound wasn't as bad.

A pleasant way to get to the rainshadow of the Cascades. The Tumwater section of this is the most enjoyable part.
