The Seven Devils make up the
Idaho rim of Hells Canyon, and they are one of the most spectacular
mountain ranges in the West. The sculptured peaks are graced with
perennial snowfields. The peaks soar above tree line, and are
surrounded with lush alpine vegetation and sparkling mountain lakes.
The Seven Devils Range has
more than seven peaks. The names He Devil and She Devil were
established long ago. The remaining peaks were named at later times.
The elevation drop from He Devil to the Snake River is a
breathtaking 8043 feet.
The Seven Devils stand high
on a 3 mile wide bench between the Snake and Salmon rivers. The
mountain range covers 40 miles between Council and White Bird,
Idaho. The Seven Devils comprise the Idaho portion of the Hells
Canyon Wilderness (76,721 acres).
