Kootznoowoo Wilderness, Federal wilderness area in Southeast Alaska, United States.
Kootznoowoo Wilderness covers 937,396 acres of Admiralty Island National Monument with temperate rainforests, alpine tundra, and extensive marine coastlines.
The U.S. Forest Service established this protected wilderness area on December 2, 1980, incorporating it into the Tongass National Forest management system.
The Tlingit community of Angoon maintains traditional practices within the wilderness, with approximately 500 residents living near the protected lands.
