Thorp Mill, Historic watermill in Thorp, United States.
The Thorp Mill stands as a wooden three-story structure on the banks of the Yakima River, featuring original milling equipment and machinery from the 1880s.
Built between 1880 and 1883, the mill operated continuously until 1946, processing local grain and later generating electricity for the surrounding community.
The mill location near an ancient Native American settlement called Klála represents the intersection of Indigenous and settler histories in Kittitas Valley.
Visitors can access the mill museum at 11640 Thorp Highway North by taking Exit 101 from Interstate 90 and following Thorp Highway north for 1.5 miles.
The structure remains the only mill in Washington State that successfully transitioned from traditional stone buhr grinding to modern roller milling technology.
