“Wilderness areas offer a refuge to those of us exhausted by our modern lives. They inspire broader conservation efforts that can preserve or restore other natural places.”

Kitty Oppliger
Keweenaw Youth for Climate Action

 

We are a collection of 400 Michigan environmental, business, outdoor recreation, hunting, fishing, student, political, faith, and veterans outdoor advocacy organizations working to advance new Wilderness areas in the Upper Peninsula.
