Got it. My pass doesn't expire until mid-May. (Wasn't sure it was needed until you got to Grouse Vista, though?)

DP is needed if parked anywhere in DNR lands I guess.

I guess that spot where Pablo and VM are parking is inside DNR...

I have a Discover Pass but have never displayed it when parked at the S Ridge TH and have had no issues. However, based on the website (quoted below), it appears that a Pass is technically required to use this undeveloped TH.

Per the Pass website: The pass is required on state recreation lands and water-access sites managed by Washington State Parks (State Parks), Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR). These lands include state parks, water-access points, heritage sites, wildlife and natural areas, DNR and WDFW campgrounds, trails and trailheads and all DNR managed uplands (natural areas and trustlands, but not aquatic lands).

Yup, anywhere parked on DNR lands, whether or not they happen to check all the roads
is probably a shell game...
