Portions of the Inyo, Sylvania, and Piper Mountains, for which this wilderness takes its name, can be found within this area of the California Desert. Alluvial fans cover large portions of the eastern side of the wilderness, with plains and hills also part of the landscape, providing habitat for Desert bighorn sheep habitat. Sagebrush and juniper-pinyon woodland are the common vegetation, with conifer trees on the higher elevations. Located at the base of the Inyo Mountains is one of the northernmost stands of Joshua trees in California.
