Congress finds that— the Henry Mountain Range, the last mountain range to be discovered and named by early explorers in the contiguous United States, still retains a wild and undiscovered quality; fluted badlands that surround the flanks of 11,000-foot Mounts Ellen and Pennell contain areas of critical habitat for mule deer and for the largest herd of free-roaming buffalo in the United States; despite their relative accessibility, the Henry Mountain Range remains one of the wildest, least known ranges in the United States; and the Henry Mountain range should be protected and managed to ensure the preservation of the range as a wilderness area.
In accordance with the Wilderness Act ( 16 U.S.C. 1131 , et seq.), the following areas in the State are designated as wilderness areas and as components of the National Wilderness Preservation System: Bull Mountain (approximately 16,000 acres).
