About this map

Sky Lakes Wilderness straddles the crest of the Cascade Range, encompassing a high-elevation landscape defined by glacial activity and volcanic peaks. The Seven Lakes Basin serves as a central hydrological feature, containing a cluster of named water bodies including North Lake, Middle Lake, and South Lake. This high country is characterized by its prominent summits, such as the namesake Devils Peak, and more curiously named landmarks like Lucifer, Venus, and Jupiter located along the southern ridges.

Transit through this protected area is defined by a network of trails rather than roads, most notably the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail which winds through the center of the sheet. The map documents the administrative overlap of the Rogue River National Forest and Winema National Forest, showing how the wilderness boundary interacts with topographic features like Boston Bluff and the headwaters of the Middle Fork Rogue River.
