William O. Douglas Wilderness

Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest but is administered by Wenatchee National Forest. See the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest map dated 1999. It should be listed as part of the latter with a notation that to the effect that it is administered by Wenatchee National Forest. Some of the National Forest boundaries make little sense but congressional action is required to change them. Consequently, portions of one National Forest are often administered by another. For most purposes, they can be considered a part of the administering National Forest. Consequently, I think for the purposes of Wikipedia, administered forests should be treated as part of the administering National Forest. However, we need to be clear when we do this, e.g., when discussing acreages. Walter Siegmund (talk) 19:23, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply

I started William O. Douglas Wilderness. The official web site says that it is jointly administered by Wenatchee National Forest and Gifford Pinchot National Forest. I'll try to add words to that effect here. Walter Siegmund (talk) 20:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Name?

"It was renamed the Gifford Pinchot National Forest on June 15, 1949.[3]"

Okay, but who is Gifford Pinchot and what did he do to have this forest named for him? Is this the same man: Gifford Pinchot? If so, why not mention him and link to his article? Thank you, Wordreader (talk) 14:15, 26 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Steelhead is not endangered

In general the Steelhead (Rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss) is not an endangered species. Current content in the article generalizes that error. 1 of 15 Distinct population segments for steelhead are listed as endangered. [1]. Ten are listed as threatened. The DPS that includes this forest is listed as threatened, not endangered. --Mike Cline (talk) 23:22, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
