Lemme check my savings balance.

 

[MTHunter1321]

Damn, just a couple million out of my price range

 

[Stifler]

We just need 150,000 of us with 1,000 dollars

 

[Brittany Chukarman]

Will they take a check?

 

[TheTone]

would love to see the state acquire it but I’m sure a bunch of private property rights folks would pitch a fit

Are you unable to watch? They are selling 60,000 acres in SW Idaho for $150M.

 

[44hunter45]

Nothing about their properties in GMU 13.

They sold one of their ranches in central MT to a Russian oligarch just prior to the invasion of Ukraine. I know a couple ranchers that live nearby and they are not too happy about it.

$2500/acre. Any buildings on it? (I didn't watch the video)

Not sure. It was timber company land when they bought it.

 

[Bambistew]

Eminent domain it, and give them $10M and a thank you note. F em.

How many millions of dollars have been spent/raised this winter by hunters at expos, conventions and trade shows ? Imagine if the target of that was to just acquire big chunks of land and turn it over to a public agency? I’m sure a couple ultra rich hunters could do it instead of buying up fancy tags and hunts for a year. Won’t happen though; doing something to benefit everyone isn’t as cool as putting a few more critters in a trophy room

 

[Trial153]

Won’t be any shortage of buyers. Hopefully some access comes from it

 

[Trial153]

Going by the “ gold standard “ us nonresidents only need to come up with 15 million. No sweat. A bridge loan and two years of fund raising we will have it. I am in

I can’t speak for the other 135 million though ..might be a little harder sell.

That infringement of bragin' rights is just outlandish. Those expos are gonna help them all get wall hangers.

It can’t be seized by the .gov asshats? Sounds like it is public ground now already?

Idaho had a $99 million dollar budget surplus last year used to reduce the real estate taxes of land owners.

I have a better suggestion for Gov. Little for this year’s surplus.

The state owns other lands used for timber sales. Add 60k acres to the land total.
