Speeding blamed for two car injury crash on Blewett pass

BLEWETT PASS – Two adults and three children were injured in a collision Monday afternoon on Highway 97 on Blewett Pass. Willow W. Howard, a 31-year-old White Swan woman, apparently lost control of her vehicle on Highway 97, crossed the centerline, and collided with a pickup truck heading in the opposite direction, sending both vehicles into a snow bank, according to the state patrol. Willow and her three passengers – a 13-year-old girl, an 8-year-old boy, and a 32-year-old woman – were all taken to the hospital. The state patrol cited Howard for driving too fast for road conditions.
