<br><br>It happens -- the south side of Baker has a wedge cut out of the wilderness area -- snow machines are legal there. <br><br>I recall reading about a machine that dropped into a crevasse a couple of years ago.<br>I've heard people in Glacier Ski Shop talk about riding sleds to the summit of Baker.

Garth Ferber and I once turned some snowmobilers away that we encountered on the Coleman Glacier. They claimed they didn't know it was Wilderness.<br>It happens -- the south side of Baker has a wedge cut out of the wilderness area -- snow machines are legal there.
