Hear actress and Wilderness Society member Betty White share personal reflections on her first experience with wilderness, in California's Sierra Nevada.
The Wilderness Society improves the ecological health of Sierra Nevada forests when we identify illegal, eroding roads and trails – and convert them back to the wild.
Sierra Nevada is known for its regal granite spires, sapphire lakes and venerable forests. It is home to Yosemite, Sequoia and other popular destinations.
To keep the Sierra Nevada forests wild, The Wilderness Society supports management plans that increase and restore habitat, protect potential wilderness and consider climate change.
Working with our Sierra Nevada partners, The Wilderness Society is protecting more wild lands, and helping with forest planning and restoration and improving forest health.
From stunning Sierra forests to vast desert vistas, California has spectacular wildlands, many within a short drive from major urban centers.
