The areas are all accessible by vehicle, although some terrain is rougher than others. All requests would have to go through Lawrence for approval. The park worker who took me around believes they can clear away underbrush and fallen trees for us, and have us pay for staff hours, as well as possibly block off access to a path to build the cabin in the middle of it. But again, all requests would have to go through Lawrence first. |
