The Snow Mountain Wilderness consists of 37,000 acres in the Mendocino National Forest. The Snow Mountain Wilderness straddles the summit of the North Coast Range within Colusa, Glenn and Lake counties. The central feature of this wilderness is the large, broad-topped Snow Mountain, which drains water toward the Sacramento River on the east and the Eel River Basin on the west. Elevations range from 1,800 feet in the gorge of the Middle Fork of Stony Creek to 7,056 feet on the summit of East Peak. The deep canyons skirting Snow Mountain compress ecological life zones, creating a unique biological sky-island. Fourty miles of trail are located in the Wilderness. This leaves a vast amount of acreage very remote and highly conductive to cross-country exploration. The moderate hike to the top of East Peak affords visitors a magnificent view of the Sacramento Valley and the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the west, and the timbered mountains of the Mendocino National Forest to the north. |
