Not in Utah (or Nevada). The Forest Service is a one of the major land owners, the others being Bureau of Land Management and Utah State Government/Schools.

As many who live in big cities may not know...

On many counties, the federal government ownes between 90 percent to 99 percent of the land.

It is like living on an island, where you have to get permission from Washington and pay money to Washington to use and/or visit the public land.

The environuts, socialists, and other DUmmies think that it is "government land."

Now these entities have decided they can just sell off tracts of our public trust land that congress placed under their stewardship. Previously they were limited to land "swaps". Now it seems they can just outright sell OUR public lands whenever they decide to. This is crap and should be stopped. Where's the outrage? It's OUR land! Not theirs to do with as they please!
