From Buckaloons Recreation Area south to the town of Tionesta, seven islands in the Allegheny River including this one were designated the Allegheny Island Wilderness by Congress in 1984. R. Thompson's Island covers 30 acres.
Leave No Trace camping is essential on these islands because of the impacts litter and improperly disposed waste can have on this important river system.
