Wilderness in the 21st Century
Season 28 Episode 1 | 26m 47sVideo has Closed Captions
As battle lines are set, we examine the complex nature of wilderness in the 21st century.
Since the passage of the Wilderness Act in 1964, Americans have learned to accept the notion of wilderness as a place "where man himself is a visitor who does not remain." But the recent success of the Owyhee Canyonlands wilderness and the controversy surrounding the Boulder-White Clouds proposal suggest that our views of wilderness and wilderness legislation have evolved in the past fifty years.
