This dataset depicts the BLM Wilderness Areas, a component of the National Conservation Lands (otherwise known as National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS) for the State of Colorado. The dataset can be used for small scale (1:24,000 and smaller) analysis, cartographic products, GIS display, spatial feature discovery, spatial relationships (Man Made or Natural). These data represent the polygon features that show the outside boundaries for the Wilderness Areas. These data support and assist in management decisions and planning. Please note other agency and/or private lands may exist within this outside boundary.

Shapefile Format - This dataset identifies the geographic locations and boundaries of the BLM Wilderness Study Areas in Colorado. They are part of the National Conservation Lands (otherwise known as National Landscape Conservation System). These polygon features represent the outside boundaries of the BLM Wilderness Study Areas in Colorado. Please note other agency or private lands may exist within these boundaries.

This data set consists of digital data describing BLM National Conservation Lands or National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS) in the State of Colorado. The data set identifies the geographic locations and boundaries of the NLCS lands throughout Colorado. These data represent the polygon features that show the boundaries for the NLCS National Monuments, National Conservation Areas and Similar Designations. Monuments encompass landscapes of tremendous beauty and diversity, ranging from rugged California coastline to vividly-hued desert canyons. The Antiquities Act of 1906 grants the President authority to designate national monuments in order to protect "objects of historic or scientific interest." While most national monuments are established by the President, Congress has also occasionally established national monuments protecting natural or historic features.

,BLM Lands Inventoried for Wilderness Characteristics is consistent with Section 201 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA), which requires the Secretary of the Interior to “prepare and maintain on a continuing basis an inventory of all public lands and their resource and other values,” and the BLM Land Use Planning Handbook, BLM Colorado has identified and begun an assessment of BLM-managed lands with wilderness characteristics outside of existing WSAs. BLM Manual 6310 - Conducting Wilderness Characteristics Inventory on BLM Lands, provides the guidance from which BLM Colorado performs the wilderness characteristic inventory process.,
