AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Holiday Travel Forecast: AAA expects 72.2 million Americans to travel at least 50 miles for the Fourth of July, with about 85% driving and the busiest road times Friday noon–7 p.m. (best before 11 a.m.), Saturday 10 a.m.–2 p.m., and Sunday noon–6 p.m. Fireworks Safety in WA: North Olympic Peninsula counties are tightening rules for Independence Day—Clallam County bans fireworks inside Port Angeles and Sequim city limits, limits discharge to 9 a.m.–midnight July 4 in some unincorporated areas, and notes burn restrictions through Oct. 1. Outdoor & Park Perks: Mount Rainier and other national parks offer free entry for Independence Day weekend, and Central Washington’s Grey Rock Trail races return July 11 (25K and 12K options). Local Flavor for Visitors: A new Foxtail Coffee Co. location opened in Flagstaff, reflecting the kind of café stop travelers love while exploring. Cross-Border Getaway: For a quick nature break, Cultus Lake in British Columbia—about two hours from Vancouver and near the WA border—offers fishing, hiking, and boating. Tech in the Air: Alaska and Hawaiian are expanding free Starlink inflight WiFi across about 150 aircraft with a new portal tied to Atmos Rewards.
