Drift Creek Wilderness
The Drift Creek Wilderness is a small (5,798 acres) wilderness area in the Siuslaw National Forest in Oregon. It was created in 1984, along with two other small wilderness areas in the Siuslaw National Forest - Cummins Creek Wilderness and Rock Creek Wilderness. There are around 8 miles of trail in the wilderness area.
The area can recieve 120 inches of rain per year, which leads to a very lush environment. It contains one of the largest remaining stands of old growth in the Coast Range. Near Drift Creek, bigleaf maple and red alder can be found. Sitka spruce, western hemlock, western redcedar, and douglas fir have the largest presence throughout the remainder of the area.
