The Allegheny National Forest is significantly underrepresented in terms of acreage allocated to America's National Wilderness Preservation System under the Wilderness Act of 1964. At less than two percent of it's land protected as wilderness, the Allegheny lags behind the national average of 18 percent for all national forest land.
