Wilderness Access Decision Tool

Details and implementation guidance for applying Title V, Section 507(c), the section of ADA that applies to Federal agencies and to the programs and facilities on federally managed lands, can be found at http://www.wilderness.net/index.cfm?fuse=toolboxes&sec=accessibility. Federal managers of wilderness areas can use this matrix to make appropriate, objective, and consistent decisions that meet the legal requirement to provide equal opportunity for all individuals, while ensuring no fundamental change to the wilderness experience for all individuals, in accordance with the 1964 Wilderness Act.
