Hike Summary: The Sipsey Wilderness Area is a wild and beautiful ly rugged places. Abundant water supplies through river, creek, and branch systems throughout the area bottoms. Elevations to 800+ ft. with many rock bluffs. Excellent photo opportunities abound. Due to hurricane damage in the Wilderness Area GPS is recommended as are fellow backpackers. Not the kind of place to become hurt or lost in.
