The Flatside Wilderness Additions Act would protect the area near Ouachita National Forest, according to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette. Hill testified to the U.S House subcommittee on the need for preserving the 2,200 acres of wilderness.
“Flatside is a beautiful area of the Natural State, noted for its ridges, summits, and part of the Ouachita Mountains that rises above the forest and provides visitors with amazing views,” Hill said.
