Overview

The Cedar Roughs Wilderness now contains a total of 6,287 acres and is managed
by the Bureau of Land Management. All of the Wilderness is in the state of
California. In 2006 the Cedar Roughs Wilderness became part of the now over
109 million acre National Wilderness Preservation System. In wilderness, you
can enjoy challenging recreational activities and extraordinary opportunities
for solitude. In an age of _"...increasing population, accompanied by
expanding settlement and growing mechanization,..."_ you play an important
role in helping to _"...secure for the American people of present and future
generations the benefits of an enduring resource of wilderness"_ as called for
by Congress in the Wilderness Act of 1964. Please follow the regulations in
place for this area, and use Leave No Trace techniques when visiting to ensure
protection of its unique natural and experiential qualities.

How to follow the seven standard Leave No Trace principles differs in
different parts of the country (desert vs. Rocky Mountains). Click on any of
the principles listed below to learn more about how they apply.

**Leave No Trace principles:**

  1. Plan Ahead and Prepare
  2. Travel and Camp on Durable Surfaces
  3. Dispose of Waste Properly
  4. Leave What You Find
  5. Minimize Campfire Impacts
  6. Respect Wildlife
  7. Be Considerate of Other Visitors

**Regulations:**  
Motorized equipment and equipment used for mechanical transport are generally
prohibited on all federal lands designated as wilderness. This includes the
use of motor vehicles (including OHVs), motorboats, motorized equipment,
bicycles, hang gliders, wagons, carts, portage wheels, and the landing of
aircraft including helicopters, unless provided for in specific legislation.
In a few areas some exceptions allowing the use of motorized equipment or
mechanical transport are described in the special regulations in effect for a
specific area. Cedar Roughs Wilderness is administered by BLM's Ukiah Field
Office. Please contact the field office for more information about
regulations.

Cedar Roughs Wilderness

Due to its close proximity to the Sacramento and San Francisco Bay Area
regions, and because of its varied terrain, Knoxville's 17,700 acres attract
many off-highway vehicle (OHV) enthusiasts each year. The landscape is
characterized by steep and rolling hills with the vegetation varying from
scattered hardwoods and grasses to dense chaparral brush. California gray pine
and Macnab cypress are also dispersed throughout the area. Of particular note,
are unusual plant communities unique to the area's serpentine barrens, which
are closed to vehicles to protect the delicate vegetation.

Other popular activities in the area include hunting, mountain bicycling,
camping, and nature study. There is one developed campground, and an OHV
staging area.

Knoxville Recreation Area is administered by BLM's Ukiah Field Office.

are no fees and no reservations. Campsite availability is on a first-come,
first-serve basis.
