Trapper Creek Wilderness, Nature reserve in Skamania County, United States.
The Trapper Creek Wilderness spans 5,969 acres of old-growth forest, steep terrain, and multiple streams within the Gifford Pinchot National Forest.
The U.S. Forest Service established this wilderness area in 1984 to protect the last remaining low-elevation old-growth forest in southern Washington.
The Mazamas, a Portland-based mountaineering organization, maintains several hiking trails throughout the wilderness area, including specialized trail markers from the 1980s.
Visitors need a Northwest Forest Pass or America the Beautiful Pass for parking and must obtain a self-issued Wilderness Permit at the trailhead.
The wilderness contains the only intact anadromous fish habitat within the Wind River watershed and features a 100-foot waterfall along Trapper Creek.
