Spend time with a dedicated wilderness advocate and you will not forget them—hardy individuals who love nothing more than spending time with their favorite patch of the outdoors, who revel in the sounds of nature, rarely miss the chatter of a television set or the buzz of city life, and who know the intimate details of a particular forest or canyon like the back of their hand.

They are our most stalwart wilderness advocates, going above and beyond their citizen duty to rally their friends, neighbors, and community leaders to bring attention to a pivotal wilderness issue. Click below to learn more about them!
