On 3/30/09 President Obama signed the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009 (Public law 111-11) into law. This law designates 52 new wilderness areas and adds acreage to 26 existing areas, a total addition to the NWPS of over 2 million acres. Some, but not all, of these areas are pictured on Wilderness.net's maps. You can view a list of these areas with links to more infromation about them.

Maps of the National Wilderness Preservation System have been produced for many years. Read about the history of wilderness mapping.
