Wilderness is for all
September 2024 is National Wilderness Month and marks the 60th anniversary of the Wilderness Act. Join us in celebrating our federal wilderness areas!
Wilderness can be found the arid deserts, cypress swamps, alpine meadows, sandy beaches, and rocky crags. From Alaska to Florida, wilderness protects some of the most diverse and sensitive habitats in our country. It offers refuge for wildlife and a place to seek connection, inspiration, sustenance, adventure, and more for each of us. What does wilderness mean to you?
