Three digit state highway numbers are considered auxiliary routes of their one or two digit parent route, thus SR 25 has one decommissioned auxiliary route, SR 251.
SR 251 was a 10.86-mile (17.48 km) long highway that ran from Northport, paralleling the Columbia River and a rail line operated by Kettle Falls International Railway, to the Canadian border at Boundary. Originally county roads until 1912, the general route became part of the Inland Empire Highway from 1913 until removal from state maintenance in 1915. The roadway became state-maintained again when State Road 22 was extended north to Canada in 1931. In 1937, the extension became SSH 22A, which later was designated as SR 251 from 1964 until 1983. The roadway is now known as the Northport–Boundary Highway and continues to be maintained by Stevens County.

“One does not realize the historical sensation as a re-experiencing, but as an understanding that is closely related to the understanding of music, or rather of the world by means of music.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
