The Rogue–Umpqua Divide Wilderness is 10 miles (16 km) west of Crater Lake National Park along the dividing ridge between the Rogue and Umpqua Rivers. Elevations range from 3,000 to 6,783 feet (914 to 2,070 m) at the summit of Fish Mountain. Volcanic activity created many unique volcanic and sedimentary rock outcrops.[1][2]
The Acker Divide and Cripple Camp trails lead through large stands of old-growth forests.[3]
Recreation
Popular recreational activities in the Wilderness include hiking, camping, and wildlife watching. Approximately 100 miles (160 km) of trails criss-cross the wilderness. The most popular is the 31.4-mile (50.5 km) Rogue–Umpqua Divide National Recreation Trail, which offers exceptional views to the east and west as it weaves across the crest of the divide.[4]
