Presents wilderness recommendations for 54 wilderness study areas (WSAs) in the State of Colorado, which were developed from the findings of a 15-year wilderness study process by the Department of the Interior and Bureau of Land Management. Based on the Bureau's review of those studies, it has been concluded that 395,792 acres within 20 study areas should be designated as part of the National Wilderness Preservation System and that 376,030 acres within 46 study areas should be released from wilderness study for uses other than wilderness.
