Twisp Mountain is a 7,161-foot-elevation (2,183-meter) summit located in the Methow Mountains, a subset of the North Cascades in Washington state. It is situated on the shared boundary of North Cascades National Park with Lake Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness, as well as the common border between Chelan County and Okanogan County. Additionally, it rises immediately southwest of Twisp Pass, and one mile northeast of Hock Mountain, the nearest higher neighbor. Precipitation runoff from the west side of Twisp Mountain drains to the Stehekin River via Bridge Creek, whereas the east side of the mountain drains into the South Fork Twisp River.
