The United States Congress designated the Hells Canyon Wilderness in 1975 and it now has a total of 217,927 acres. Idaho contains approximately 83,811 acres. Oregon contains approximately 134,116 acres. It is managed by the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service.
Hells Canyon Wilderness is a subset of the Hells Canyon National Recreation Area (HCNRA), which straddles the border of northeastern Oregon and western Idaho. Split into two distinct halves by the Wild & Scenic Snake River, approximately one-third of HCNRA is designated Wilderness. A small portion of the Wilderness in Oregon is managed by the BLM.
The Idaho side of the Wilderness is smaller than the Oregon side and encompasses the Seven Devils mountain range. The Wilderness stretches South from Pittsburg Landing for approximately 31 miles along the Snake River.
On the Oregon side, the higher elevation areas are characteristic of rocky slopes and grasslands laced with 'stringer canyons' and groves composed of Douglas fir and ponderosa pine. The lower elevations are dominated by grassland benches with steep canyons and ravines dissecting the isolated Oregon-side. Two National trails are found at various elevations: Western Rim/Summit Ridge Recreation Trail at the upper elevation, and Nez Perce Historic Trail near the Snake River. Species of interest are Rocky Mountain Elk, bighorn sheep, mule deer, and chukar.

The infamous Brodbeck Auditorium. Supposedly it was a whore house in the 1800s before being purchased and is now supposedly haunted.
Took this while on a tour of the Gordon River in Tasmania.

This area known as Bumpass Hell is the largest active geothermal feature with fumaroles, hot springs, acid and mud pots in Lassen Volcanic National Park. It is accessed by a 1.5 mile long trail (3 mile round trip) with a 500 foot rise followed by a 250 foot drop into the thermal area. It got its name from a pioneer Kendall Bumpass who discovered the site in the 1860s and brought a newspaper editor to see it and while there Kendall broke through the thin ground crust in the boiling mud/liquid below and burned his leg so badly it had to be amputed -- he later described this place as "hell".
Inside the ground, in the most deep caves where all is darkness and fire dwells the fearsome creature: The HELL TROLL, that eat Trolls Orcs, Goblins, Dragons and any other living creature. His breath melts the steel, its tail is like white hot steel whips, his skin is like a rock and his horns can reduced to ashes his enemies.

Hell is not where most people imagine it to be, it's actually near Trondheim. It's even got a station.
