Thorp Mountain via Knox Creek — Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022

This was a great hike.  It is a bit of a grind the first mile as you climb the first slope but the views are worth it.  As others have noted, about .6 from the trailhead the road is impassible for anything other than high clearance vehicles (i.e. Jeep Wrangler).  I tried it in my Hyundai Palisade but ended up getting stuck for a worrisome minute and I didn't even get to the really bad parts.  A normal SUV will not get through, you must have a high clearance vehicle.  No snow, no bugs, VERY dry.
