BACK PACKING SEVEN LAKES BASIN

Sky Lakes Wilderness, designated by Congress in 1984, is a land of lakes, rocky ridges, and timbered slopes. Sky Lakes Wilderness (113,590 acres) straddles southern Oregon's Cascade .
More than 200 pools of water, from mere ponds to lakes of 30 to 40 acres, dot the landscape. Fourmile Lake, near the southern end of the area exceeds 900 acres.

The lake basins can sometimes be crowded with other campers, but the Wilderness has thousands of acres of forest and scenic ridges where the visitor can find solitude. There are no developed or improved campsites in Sky Lakes.
Best from july - Oct.
