The White Rocks National Recreation Area was created by the Vermont Wilderness Act of 1984.^[1] On January 17, 2006 President George W. Bush signed Pub. L.Tooltip Public Law (United States) 110–1 (text) (PDF), which renamed the park to the Robert T.

There are also 61 miles (97.6 kilometers) of maintained snowmobile trails within the recreation area. Chaos Canyon is a cleft in a giant quartzite rockslide in the Area.
