Wilderness State Park is a state park in the U.S. state of Michigan. It is located in Emmet County in Northern Michigan. The nearest towns are Carp Lake, Michigan and Mackinaw City, Michigan. The state park is operated by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR). DNR has, as of 2006, approved a proposal that , more than 50% of the state park, be officially dedicated as a wilderness area. ==Description==
One of the most prominent physical features of the park is Waugoshance Point, which juts westward into northern Lake Michigan. Beyond the tip of the point, Temperance Island and Waugoshance Island are also parts of the state park. Waugoshance Point and the adjacent islands were described, as of 2006, as containing approximately one-third of the remaining Great Lakes habitat suitable for nesting by the endangered piping plover. Wilderness State Park contains populations of many animals that are part of the traditional image of the northern Great Lakes ecosystem, including American black bear, beaver, bobcats, mink, muskrats, and otter. There have been unconfirmed reports of wolves in the Waugoshance Point area; the most recent being in 1997. Four Lake Michigan lighthouses are situated near the park's western boundary. Stations at: Grays Reef, Skillagalee Island, Waugoshance, and White Shoal, warn shipping away from the dangerous reefs and shoals of Waugoshance Point.
