Hawkins Mountain

Nature
Hawkins Mountain is a 7,160-foot double-summit massif in the Teanaway area of Washington’s Wenatchee Mountains, in Kittitas County on Wenatchee National Forest land. The sixth-highest point in the Teanaway area, it has a lower east summit reaching 7,080 feet, known as Hawkins Thimble, that gives it a distinctive two-part profile. Water from the mountain drains into tributaries of both the Teanaway River and the Cle Elum River. East of the Cascade crest, the surrounding country is generally drier than the range’s western side, with warm summers, occasional thunderstorms, and often cloudy winters. The mountain was named for prospector Samuel S. Hawkins.
