Upland Island Wilderness is one of five designated wilderness areas managed by the U.S. Forest Service in East Texas. The 13,331-acre wilderness is located in Angelina and Jasper Counties and is part of Angelina National Forest. The area was named by conservationist Edward C. Fritz, who led the effort to designate wilderness areas in East Texas in 1984.
The wilderness contains a diverse range of ecosystems, from park-like upland forests of longleaf pine and pitcher plant bogs with wild azaleas and orchids to bottomland hardwood forests and palmetto flats along the Neches River.
