Description:Ahjumawi is a place of exceptional, even primeval, beauty. Brilliant aqua bays and tree studded islets only a few yards long dot the shoreline of Ja-She Creek, Crystal Springs, and Horr Pond. Over two thirds of the wilderness area is covered by recent (three to five thousand years) lava flows including vast areas of jagged black basalt. The 6,000 acre park is extremely rugged and is only reachable by boat. The Park can only be reached by boat. There are no public roads to it and private motor vehicles are prohibited within. Visitors can launch into Big Lake at a PG&E public boat launch known as "Rat Farm". Lava tube caves.
