The {{convert|13331|acre|km2|sing=on}}[1] wilderness is located in Angelina and Jasper Counties and is part of Angelina National Forest. The area was named by conservationist Edward C. Fritz, who led the effort to designate wilderness areas in East Texas in 1984. EcosystemsThe wilderness contains a diverse range of ecosystems, from park-like upland forests of longleaf pine and pitcher plant bogs with wild azaleas and orchids to bottomland hardwood forests and palmetto flats along the Neches River.[3] MaintenanceThe primitive landscape has been relatively untouched, and the Forest Service has managed to keep the area natural with the help of regulations and prohibited activities. It is their effort to keep the designated land clean and natural.[4] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.wilderness.net/NWPS/wildView?WID=620 |title=Upland Island Wilderness |publisher=Wilderness.net}} 2. ^{{cite web |publisher=Texas State Historical Association Online |title=Compromise bill establishes five Texas wilderness areas|url=https://tshaonline.org/day-by-day/30548}} 3. ^{{cite web |publisher=Texas State Historical Association Online |title=Upland Island Wilderness Area.|url=https://tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/gku01}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Angelina N.F. - Upland Island & Turkey Hill Wilderness Areas|url=http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/texas/specialplaces/?cid=stelprdb5291445|website=United States Department of Agriculture|accessdate=17 July 2015}} External links{{commons category|Angelina National Forest}}
