Vento Chairman, Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests, and Public Lands Committee on Natural Resources House of Representatives Dear Mr. Chairman: Concerned about alleged degradation of areas being considered for possible inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System (wilderness study areas), you requested that we provide you with information on the types and effects of activities in these study areas. As agreed with your office, we gathered information on areas managed by two agencies: the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLN) and the Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service. Specifically, this report provides information on (1) legislative guidance and the agency policies governing wilderness study area management, (2) the various activities and uses occurring in the agencies’ study areas, (3) the ways these activities and uses affect the areas, and (4) agency actions to monitor and restrict these uses and to repair damage resulting from them. Appendixes I and II provide data on the number, acreage, and locations of wilderness study areas managed by BLM and the Forest Service, as well as data on the types of uses occurring in the areas. -

Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Jerry Peak Wilderness Addition Hemingway-Boulders, Jim Mcclure-Jerry Peak and White Clouds Wilderness Areas
FOREST SERVICE AND BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Jerry Peak Wilderness Addition Hemingway-Boulders, Jim McClure-Jerry Peak and White Clouds Wilderness Areas Interim Maps and Guidelines 2016 “A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is hereby recognized as an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled (wild and free from human control or manipulation) by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain. An area of wilderness is further defined to mean … an area of undeveloped Federal land retaining its primeval character and influence, without permanent improvements or human habitation, which is protected and managed so as to preserve its natural conditions…” —The Wilderness Act, 1964 U.S. President Barack Obama signed into law Congressman Mike Simpson’s legislation creating three new Wilderness areas in Idaho. The legislation, The Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Jerry Peak Wilderness Additions Act (P.L. 114-46), was signed August 7, 2015, in a signing ceremony at the White House. The Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Jerry Peak Wilderness Additions Act designates three areas as part of the National Wilderness Preservation System, including the Jim McClure-Jerry Peak Wilderness (116,898 acres), White Clouds Wilderness (90,769 acres) and Hemingway-Boulders Wilderness (67,998 acres). These protected areas preserve 275,665 acres of high mountain backcountry with crystal lakes and abundant wildlife. The U.S. Forest Service manages federal lands within the newly designated wilderness areas with the exception of more than 24,000 acres of the Jim McClure-Jerry Peak Wilderness, and 450 acres of the White Clouds Wilderness which is managed by the Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM). -
