Thorp Mountain via Knox Creek — Saturday, Nov. 2, 2002

Snoqualmie Region > Salmon La Sac/Teanaway

Road was compact snow from the Knox Creek turnoff to the trailhead, but wasn't a problem with 4x4. Lower part of road is more intimidating then further up where the sun has melted most of the snow. Followed the Knox Creek trail to the first intersection on the ridge top, then turned right and followed the trail to the Lookout. Be sure to stay left at an intersection where the trail heading right slopes downward (maybe heading towards Thorpe Lake?). South facing areas and meadows are snow free, but shady areas are snow and/or icy. But definitely still hikable. Views are endless at the lookout, only two other people were there, and only a slight breeze with warmth in the sheltered areas.
