I know that some members fish here, so I figured it would be worth posting.

So basically, angling groups helped raise the seed money for the purchase of this land for a cutthroat trout restoration project and the DWR and State are selling it off.
If there are any doubts about what would happen if the State ever was able to acquire Federal land like they want to, this should remove it. Say goodbye to your fishing and hunting access as the land is sold to the highest bidder.
Also, if I was with a conservation group, I'd be very cautious about working with the DWR/State in the future on land acquisition related conservation projects.
