County Line, Bean Creek Basin & Beverly Turnpike — Friday, Aug. 11, 2000

Snoqualmie Region > Salmon La Sac/Teanaway

Went up Bean Creek to Bean Peak (brown rocks due north from spot where trail 1391.1 crosses Bean Creek and you head straight into Bean Basin). We aimed for the saddle east of Bean as per the description in ""Teanaway Country"" by Mary Sutliff (out of print), but then had to do a fair amount of highly enjoyable scrambling to get to the summit. An easier route appears to be to head just south of the peak and then scramble straight up to the right. After partaking of some views and lunch, we traversed to the County Line Trail just south of Volcanic Neck, took that lonely trail west to Fourth Creek Trail #1391B, then down to Beverly Creek Trail and out.
