When one visits the wilderness area they should come prepared. Bring boots, as it is a swamp and, depending on the time of year, biting insects can be bothersome- including ticks. No mechanized transport of any kind is allowed in the wilderness area. The future survival of the wilderness area depends on us. The threat comes from outside the wilderness area.
Continued development is a constant threat that needs to be monitored.
Development increases runoff which is detrimental to the swamp. A high quality of clean water must be maintained, or the ecosystem will suffer.
