None of the meadows at Hawkins would be legal for motorcycles or Wheeling.

Both of them have posted signs indicating no motorized vehicles allowed.

Would that be the bowl behind lake Ann. Beatiful alpine lake well worth parking your rig and walking into. Camped out there one year after getting a deer at dusk and was to late and dark (and cold/snow) to hike out by the time I found it and preped it. It was one of the most beautiful nights I have ever spent in the woods under the stars (but **** it got cold even with a nice fire )

Wade was reffering to Hawkin's Mt. A couple years ago a couple of rigs wheeled into the wet/sensitive soils area up there. The following year we laid logs end to end across the area to stop other from venturing out there. I also drove carsonite with 'No Vehicles" decals on them there. For the most part people have respected that boundry.

Merrick you are welcome to wheel with me at my stomping grounds anytime! And it was nice to meet you Dan.
