In a state known for its wildlands, Wyoming’s namesake range is home to the 11,363-foot Wyoming Peak, where open slopes are dotted with sagebrush and pockets of aspen trees.
The mountains of the Wyoming Range are too special to drill, yet their world-class recreation, wildlife and water resources are threatened by proposed oil and gas development.
The Wilderness Society is working with diverse groups to create a community vision for the Gallatin that marries permanent protection and recreational opportunity.
The real value of the Gallatin Range goes beyond its designated wilderness study area. The Wilderness Society has a long-standing commitment to protect the Gallatin Range.
The Shoshone is unique in the quantity and quality of wilderness and roadless areas. We’re defending these wild lands against reckless development and road building.
As the nation’s first national forest, the Shoshone is uniquely wild and scenic. More than half is designated as wilderness and another 30 percent is considered pristine.
Because of our work, the most special places in the Greater Yellowstone won’t be sacrificed by the oil and gas industry or destroyed by motorized recreation.
