The U.S. Forest Service is responsible for managing over 35 million
acres of designated wilderness, about 18 percent of all the land
managed by the agency. Nearly all (90 percent) of the National
Forests and Grasslands administer designated wilderness. Although
the central mandate from the 1964 Wilderness Act is that the
administering agencies preserve the wilderness character in these
designated areas, the concept of wilderness character has largely
been absent in Forest Service efforts to manage wilderness. The
purpose of this document is to help National Forest planners,
wilderness staff, and project leaders apply in a practical way the
concept of wilderness character to forest and project planning, the
National Environmental Policy Act process, on-the-ground wilderness
management, and wilderness character trend monitoring that is
relevant to an individual wilderness.
