Untamed. Unspoiled. Unprotected.
Help protect nearly 90,000 acres
of Minnesota’s Wilderness In Minnesota today, there is an opportunity to protect nearly 90,000
acres of roadless areas within the Superior National Forest. These areas
represent the few remaining wild lands outside of the Boundary Waters
Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). But they will not remain wild forever.
Every year, more roads are built, more trees are logged, and more land
is developed.
To ensure that future generations enjoy the same wild and natural places
we do today, immediate action must be taken. In 2003, the Friends of the
Boundary Waters Wilderness unveiled a study recommending the permanent
protection of nearly 90,000 acres of roadless areas in Superior National
Forest. Protection of these areas will allow permanent access for
hunting, fishing, canoeing, bird watching, and camping.
To guarantee the protection of these areas, however, requires the help of
Minnesota’s Governor, Members of Congress and the voices of thousands of
people like you. While a strong majority of Americans believe there is
currently not enough wilderness protected for future generations, our
forests continue to be depleted. Please support the Protect Minnesota’s
Wilderness campaign to ensure that wilderness remains part of our
national heritage.
