The Franklin Mountains Wilderness Coalition was formed in 1978 and played a central role in the events that led to the establishment of Franklin Mountains State Park in 1979. The Coalition consists of organizations and individuals united in their concern for the Franklins in Texas and New Mexico and dedicated to:
(1) preserving
the scenic beauty and wilderness character of the Mountains; ·
(2) protecting
the plant and animal resources of the Mountains and preserving the whole
range as an intact ecosystem; ·
(3) stimulating
appreciation of the natural values of the Mountains and promoting
understanding of their biological, cultural and geological features; and
(4) encouraging
recreational, scientific and educational uses of the Mountains
consistent with preserving their scenic beauty and wilderness character.
