This list comes from the official boundary data of the Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management and the National Park Service. Wilderness managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is not included yet. Acreage is the agency's mapped (GIS) area and can differ from the acreage in the designating law; the BLM data does not include acreage.
