Notch Peak Ranch acquires from Forest Service and BLM
Scattered and isolated Forest Service (approximately 4,597.35 acres) and BLM (approximately 483.49 acres) lands in 17 separated parcels in Albany County, Wyoming. All of the parcels are either: adjacent to, intermingled with, or partially/entirely surrounded by private lands owned by Notch Peak Ranch. Many of the parcels have recently been burned by wildfire. Most are difficult to access and administer, given their scattered, narrowly configured, or isolated nature. The proposed exchange is consistent with the Medicine Bow National Forest Management Plan.
