A densely forested, wind-lashed wilderness.
Offers outstanding backcountry recreation.
One of the few places in the United States that's beyond the reach of the automobile. Quite remote.
A jigsaw puzzle of land and water, a complex topography that attracts kayakers, canoeists, divers, and anglers, as well as long-distance hikers.
Ecologically complex. Three distinct forest types—including a remnant of ice-age boreal woodlands.
A century ago, lynx and caribou were the dominant mammals. Wildlife includes wolves, moose, beaver, red fox, lynx, mink and bald eagles.
The basalt flows are at times 800 feet thick—one of the earth's largest and thickest lava flows.
Dogs and other pets are strictly forbidden.
