Area Description:
Natural features of this addition include several outstanding topographical features of The Wall formation and an extensive expanse of natural alluvial formation descending down into the Railroad Valley. Cold-desert sagebrush vegetation can be found throughout the unit. As this entire unit is contiguous with The Wall WSA, an area that meets all the criteria for outstanding wilderness characteristics. The darkness of the night skies in this unit are an outstanding supplemental value.
