East Fork High Rock Canyon Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in northern Nevada, United States.
The East Fork High Rock Canyon Wilderness spans 52,618 acres of volcanic uplands intersected by deep canyons and dramatic rock formations.
The wilderness area, established in 2000, preserves ancestral lands where Native Americans lived and early pioneers traversed during westward expansion.
The protected landscape maintains natural habitats for golden eagles, prairie falcons, and other wildlife species within the Black Rock Desert region.
Access to the main route requires a high-clearance four-wheel drive vehicle and remains restricted from January 31 to May 15 for wildlife protection.
The wilderness contains year-round populations of mule deer that increase during winter months when migratory herds join the resident animals.
