Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe," when the act was passed were incor­ porated into the National Wilderness Preservation Sys­ tem. Areas classed as "primitive" were not included in the Wilderness System, but the act provides that each primitive area be studied for its suitability for incor­ poration into the Wilderness System. The mineral sur­ veys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. This bulletin reports the results of a mineral survey in the Sawtooth Primitive Area and vicinity, Idaho. The area discussed in the report includes the primitive area, as defined, and some bordering areas that may come under discussion when the area is considered for wilderness status.
