The Madison-Gallatin Chapter of the Montana Wilderness Association educates and inspires people to protect special wild places in Park, Gallatin, and Madison Counties in Southwest and South-Central Montana. Some best known wild places include the four units of the Lee Metcalf Wilderness in the Madison Range, a large section of the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness, some of the northwestern parts of Yellowstone National Park, and the Hyalite-Porcupine-Buffalo Horn Wilderness Study Area in the Gallatin Range. Other mountain ranges in the geographic area with unprotected wild areas include parts of the Bridgers, the Gravely and Snowcrest Ranges, the Tobacco Roots, and the Crazy Mountains.
