Yes it is interesting the way the BLM treats people. I find that ranchers here
in Nevada are some the friendliest and hard working people you could hope to
meet. My ranch is bordered by 3/4 of a mile of BLM federal land with a private
shortcut road cutting through one corner of it. Perhaps I should block the
private road with a coded gate and only share the code with ranchers so that
others (BLM) cannot use this shortcut to a county road.
I find it better to collaborate than to make your own laws as you go. I have
no problem at all letting other rancher's cattle graze on my land. In
exchange, I get to search their properties for meteorites with no worry of a
fake 10 pound limit. I notice not a single commercial permit for meteorite
hunting has ever been issued by the BLM so the whole thing is a farce.
Best Regards,
Adam

Looks like the BLM has their hands full as of late:
the article:

Environmental issues have never been a real concern for the feds except as
convenient leverage when it's time to collect payment.
I am not siding with the grazing issue totally but the BLM's attitude is
disturbing to me.

This has long reaching implications that extend all the way to us and our
endeavours believe me.
