Wilderness Stewardship Groups around the Country
The National Wilderness Stewardship Alliance’s big goal of having every Wilderness area in the county served by a Wilderness stewardship organization can come true because of all the hard work by dedicated volunteers and agency staff working together to manage our incredible resource of Wilderness! The NWSA is attempting to keep a current list of the wilderness stewardship groups out there so we can all better network and learn from one another. Feel free to reach out and connect!
