NM Federal Land Transfer!

[El Jason]

On Wyoming school trust lands you are not allowed to camp overnight or have a fire. There are plenty of restrictions on state lands in Wyoming.

It’s weird you would have user fees for things like campgrounds, boat ramps, ski trail grooming, etc.

None of which are on Wyoming state trust lands either.

I’ll plug this now for anyone who’s still debating if states are capable of retaining land put into care of the State.

This is another of our videos to try give more information about the effort to liquidate and privatize our Federal lands. This one explains State Land Boards, their history, how they operate, and why State Land Boards are the chosen conduit for the groups wanting to see your Federal lands liquidated.

Anywhere there is State Trust Land in the several western states, it is owned wholly by the State. Entities from the same State such as game management agencies or State Parks may lease use of the surface land and water through some term financial agreement with the landowner.

Or, as with the Nevada example, sell it all. 4,000,000 acres initially granted to the State to dispose of as they saw fit in perpetuity of education. Now Nevada has some 2,900 acres remaining.

To be fair though, isn’t Nevada still like 85% public land overall?
