Government Lands are color-coded depending on which agency manages the area; Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, etc.
Important: the Government Lands Layer includes properties owned by federal, state and tribal governments that may not be open for public access.
Be sure to research each Government-owned property thoroughly before you visit.
