In its preliminary report on the proposal to designate portions of Theodore Roosevelt National Memorial Park as wilderness areas, the National Park Service finds that most of the north unit of the park is suitable for wilderness designation, while the south unit is unsuitable due to existing developments, intensive visitor use, and private mineral rights interests. The report includes background on the park and the surrounding area, including physical and historical details.
