Myths Abound about Wilderness

Here's the Facts - Help us Dispel the Myths

Have you heard the questions?  Do others hound you about why we don't want designated wilderness areas, not around here?!  Wilderness closes roads and shuts out access to campsites and trailheads.  You cannot fight fires in wilderness.  You cannot fight invasive species in wilderness.  Hunting is not allowed in wilderness... on and on.  Yes, we hear them all, and they are all unfounded myths.  Here's the facts, posted by Friends of Shenandoah Mountain.  Also, see our FAQ page.  And help us spread the truth, not myths, about wilderness.
