People moving away from rural Montana is a stark reality. Yes, the APR is helping this in NE Montana, but that also occurs when mega ranches buy what’s for sale and I have yet to hear those concerns living here.
They are kind enough to allow hunting on the majority of their property right now and They could change their mind about that at any time in the future, just like every other private land owner.
I have talked with representatives from the APR about permanent access easements through their land onto public inholdings in case 50 years from now they have a board of directors that isn’t pro hunting. That ball is still rolling.
I don’t know about this year but in prior years they have been more restrictive on hunting on some of their property due to their opinions on wildlife population. They are not fans of how FWP currently manages big game species population objectives in the Breaks and I agree with them.
