Gospel Hump Wilderness Map

The Gospel Hump Wilderness Map produced by the US Forest Service contains the most up-to-date information on access roads, trails, campsites, terrain, and points of interest within the Gospel Hump Wilderness. All wilderness maps contain contour lines, a topographic quad index and contact phone numbers, and the vast majority contain planning tips and descriptions of the terrain.

From Gospel Peak on the west, the area rises to a high point on Buffalo Hump at 8,940 feet. The northern portion contains relatively gentle, heavily forested country that sweeps up the glaciated divide between the South Fork of the Clearwater River and the lower Salmon River, which flows out of the nearby Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. From the divide, the terrain becomes the steep and sparsely vegetated Salmon River Breaks. In the waters of Gospel Hump the fishing can be extremely good for resident and anadromous fish.
