Wikimedia-Liste

Die Liste der Wilderness Areas in Alaska enthält alle Wilderness Areas in Alaska, die im Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) des United States Geological Survey gelistet sind.

Ein Wilderness Area ist in den Vereinigten Staaten ein Naturschutzgebiet, das grundsätzlich von menschlichen Eingriffen unbeeinflusst ist und dauerhaft vor ihnen geschützt werden soll.

Die Gesamtfläche der Wilderness Areas in Alaska beträgt 228.941 km² und damit 52 % der gesamten Wilderness-Fläche in den Vereinigten Staaten. Die größte Wilderness Area (Wrangell-St. Elias Wilderness mit 36.740 km²) und die größte zusammenhänge Fläche mehrerer Einheiten (Noatak und Gates of the Arctic Wilderness mit zusammen 51.570 km²) liegen in Alaska.[1] Ebenso die fünf größten und acht der größten zehn Wilderness Areas der USA.
