The act pro­ vides that the Geological Survey and the Bureau of Mines survey these wilderness areas to determine the mineral values, if any, that may be present. The act also directs that results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and submitted to the President and Congress. This bulletin reports the results of a mineral survey of the North Absaroka Wilderness, Park County, Wyoming, and some adjoining national forest lands that may be considered for wilder­ ness designation.

NELSON and HAROLD j. PROSTKA, U. S. Geological Survey, and FRANK E. WILLIAMS, U.S. Bureau of Mines SUMMARY 2 The North Absaroka Wilderness is approximately 560 square miles (I ,450 km ) of rugged scenic mountainous terrain that adjoins the eastern boundary of Yellowstone National Park in northwestern Wyoming. The area was studied during 1970, 1971, and 1972 by personnel of the U. S. Geological Survey and the U. S. Bureau of Mines to evaluate its mineral-resource poten­ tial as required by the Wilderness Act of 1964. This evaluation is based on a search of the litera­ ture, courthouse and production records, geologic field mapping, field inspection of claims and prospects, analyses of bedrock and stream-sediment samples, and an aeromagnetic survey. The North Absaroka Wilderness is underlain almost entirely by andesitic and basaltic vol­ canic rocks of Eocene age. These volcanics rest on deformed sedimentary rocks of Paleozoic and, locally, of Mesozoic

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.
