Located in northeast Oregon and western Idaho, lies the Wallowa-Whitman National Forest comprised of 2.3 million acres. Elevations on the National Forest range from 875 feet in Hells Canyon, to 9845 feet above sea level in the Eagle Cap Wilderness. In this National Forest, you may see a great variety of wildlife, including more big game species than any other Forest in Oregon and Washington. You'll see forests of ponderosa pine, western larch, Douglas and other firs. You may want to visit Hells Canyon National Recreation Area, designated by Congress in 1975. It includes the Hells Canyon Wilderness and the Rapid and Snake River segments of the National Wild and Scenic River System.
