Lower Last Chance Wilderness Area

Lower Last Chance Wilderness Area spans over 21,000 acres of federally protected backcountry in Utah, managed by the Bureau of Land Management as a primitive, non-motorized landscape. The area offers solitude and self-reliant travel for hikers and backpackers seeking remote country away from roads and development.

As a designated Wilderness Area, Lower Last Chance operates under strict rules: no motorized vehicles, no mechanized travel, and no mountain bikes are permitted. Visitors must practice Leave No Trace principles and be prepared for self-sufficient travel with proper navigation, water planning, and wilderness skills. Access and seasonal conditions vary; spring and fall can present weather challenges, and winter travel requires appropriate experience and gear.
