The Road Not Taken

Article Abstract:

A California Wilderness Coalition report documents the loss of 675,449 acres of potential wilderness areas in the state. A survey of public lands in Utah found almost 9.1 million acres suitable for wilderness designation, a three-fold increase over the estimate in 1979. However, the calculation of potential wilderness is not enough to protect it.
