      Craggy peaks, deep canyons cloaked in conifer forests, abundant meadows, Wild and Scenic River segments, and 89 lakes highlight this 225,000-acre area. Many of the peaks exceed 6,000 feet in elevation, with Boulder Peak the highest at 8,299 feet. There are also fascinating geological features, including Marble Mountain, a stark, red-and-gray marbled peak. Here one can travel through old growth conifer forests with diverse species: low and mid-elevation species include Douglas fir, sugar pine, and white fir; higher elevation species include Shasta fir, whitebark pine, foxtail pine, and mountain hemlock. You will find alpine meadows, lakes in glacial cirques, and bare rock at higher elevations. Black bear, black-tailed deer, and many other species of wildlife inhabit this Wilderness.

      Numerous trailheads and an extensive trail network provide access to the Wilderness, offering both day hikes to lakes and longer multi-day loop trips. The Pacific Crest Trail also crosses the crest of the Marble Mountains for 32 miles from south to north.
