If I am looking at the map data correctly, it seem that at least some 
designated wilderness areas are excluded from the forest that they are in. For 
example the Chumash Wilderness [1] seems to have its border as an outer on the 
Los Padres National Forest [2].

This does not seem correct to me. In this specific case the wilderness is 
administered as part of the Mt. Pinos Ranger District of the Los Padres 
National Forest. I believe the same situation exists with the San Mateo 
Wilderness in the Cleveland National Forest.

What is our tagging policy on this? Should the wilderness be shown as part of 
the forest that contains it? (I realize there may be wilderness areas that 
cover multiple forests but the usual case is that a wilderness area is a subset 
of a forest both geographically and administratively.

Comments?

Thanks
Tod
