The USA has 756 National Wilderness areas that are designated for preservation in their natural condition. In these wilderness areas activities are restricted to non-motorized recreation (such as hiking and fishing ), scientific research, and other non-invasive activities.
Wllderness.net has created this Google Map of America's National Wilderness areas. It is possible to search the map by state and by name. If you click on a shaded polygon an information window displays more details about the selected Wilderness Area.
The Wilderness Areas are color-coded to show which authority that they are managed by. The map includes labels for each area that appear when you zoom in.
