Salmon–Huckleberry Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in Mount Hood National Forest, Oregon.
The Salmon-Huckleberry Wilderness spans 62,061 acres of dense rainforest with Douglas fir, western red cedar, and western hemlock trees across northwestern Cascades.
Congress established this wilderness area in 1984 within Mount Hood National Forest to maintain natural conditions and protect the ecological system.
Native American tribes utilized the abundant resources of this land, including the salmon-rich rivers and forest products, for generations before European settlement.
Visitors can access multiple trailheads from nearby Zigzag, with the Salmon River Trail offering extended hiking routes and primitive camping opportunities.
The wilderness contains volcanic remnants from 10 million years ago, including Devils Peak and Salmon Butte, shaped by extensive ice and water erosion.
