It is not lawful to place anything in a
Wilderness Area regardless of the agency which administers the wilderness
area. This also includes those areas with Primitive Area status as in
the Blue Primitive area on the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest. For
info on the boundaries of these areas, contact the Apache Sitgreaves National
Forest and get a map from them. They will let you know the
boundaries. The 1964 Wilderness Act precludes this placement of things
in the wilderness areas. Also, for as long as I have been going to
wilderness areas, it has always been the etiquette to take nothing but
pictures and leave nothing but tracks.
