Wilderness

"Wilderness is the name of an area near the border of Orange and Spotsylvania counties in Virginia. Although not an official town, it is known as a locality and understood to be at the intersection of Virginia primary 20 and Virginia primary 3. The name likely comes from the nearby thick forest known as The Wilderness Forest, where a Civil War battle nearby known as the Battle of the Wilderness occurred. Locust Grove is the official mailing address for Wilderness."
