The Pasayten Wilderness is a vast and remote wild area covering 531,000 acres within the Okanogan-Wenatchee and Mount Baker National Forests. It greets the Canada border for over 50 miles and has over 150 peaks above 7,500 feet, including Jack Mountain (9,075 ft), the highest point in the wilderness. Forests are made up of fir, cedar, and western hemlock in the west to fir, pine, and larch in the east, teeming with deer, moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, gray wolves, and the largest population of Canada lynx in the Lower 48.
