> These areas are currently used by millions of hikers, hunters, ranchers, miners, researchers, campers, OHVers, and so many other groups.

Do you have evidence that "most" of Nevada's 80% "public lands" are used by "millions"?


esseph
5.5 million a year, ackshually, and that information looks dated from back in 2008.

Red Rock gets over 3 million visitors a year by itself.

Do you have evidence it is not?

socalgal2 OP
We have a different definition of use 80% of public lands. afaict your links show 5.5 million people using 1% of public land.

It does say there are millions using BLM land in Nevada every year.

Maybe that means something to you. Maybe it does not. I don't care either way.

So… what? Sell the rest? These are clearly leading questions and statements. Why not simply have the courage to make your actual argument, instead of playing “google this for me” and stupid semantic games?
socalgal2 OP
they aren't stupid semantic games. I already knew 99% of Nevada's public lands are not used by anyone. The claim that they are is disingenuous.
You “know” based on what? Only one person has submitted evidence. “Trust me bro” ain’t it.

How many people-days, specifically, of utilization does a plot of land need before it becomes “used by someone”, in your view?

Again, say what you mean. This “just asking questions” schtick is boring and tired.

Fucking fascinating then, you should work for them.

Clearly you are smarter than everyone else and have all the data they need to make the proper decisions.

And thank you for taking your time to play silly word games! We all appreciate this very much. Excellent!
