Established in 1984, it is noteworthy for the northernmost growth of western juniper trees that live among the area's large sand dunes.[1] Flora and faunaCommon wildlife found in Juniper Dunes Wilderness include mule deer, bobcat, coyote, badger, skunk, weasel, porcupine, pocket gopher, kangaroo rat, several species of mouse, hawk, owl, raven, quail, partridge, pheasant, dove, numerous songbirds, and rattlesnakes.[1] Other than the namesake junipers, no trees grow in significant numbers here.[1] Other vegetation found in the Wilderness include rubber rabbitbrush, green rabbitbrush, bluebunch wheatgrass, Indian ricegrass, white sand-verbena, Franklin sandwort, sicklepod milkvetch, turpentine cymopterus, hymenopappus, prickly pear cactus, sand-dune penstemon, lanceleaf breadroot, sand dock, Carey balsamroot, wild-hyacinth, larkspur, wild flax, snow buckwheat, desert parsley Indian-potato, and silverleaf phacelia.[2] AccessCurrently no legal access to Juniper Dunes Wilderness exists, as the entire surrounding land is privately owned. An agreement in early 2007 with landowners allows visitors, with permission, to travel on one of several old jeep trails that end near the Wilderness boundary.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web|title=Juniper Dunes Wilderness |url=http://www.wilderness.net/index.cfm?fuse=NWPS&sec=wildView&wname=Juniper%20Dunes |accessdate=2008-02-21 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20031111061127/http://www.wilderness.net/index.cfm?fuse=NWPS&sec=wildView&wname=Juniper+Dunes |archivedate=2003-11-11 |df= }} 2. ^Juniper Dunes Wilderness Area, Franklin County, Washington - Botanical Electronic News External links
