Landform

A million-acre wilderness of limestone reefs, the Chinese Wall, and one of the last intact grizzly landscapes in the lower 48.

Field note

The Chinese Wall is a limestone escarpment a thousand feet high and twenty-two miles long. Most people who come here walk for a week. The Bob is named for a forester who never saw it finished.
