Mallard Roadless Area

Size: 77,000 acres

This area is the site of the infamous Cove/Mallard timber sales. These sales, which would have decimated two roadless areas totaling 77,000 acres, were canceled recently after intense public pressure and citizen monitoring proved that the sales were not following environmental laws.

This area is important forested habitat, adjacent to the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness, and a crucial wildlife corridor.
