You seem to poo-poo the land sales posted because they were done since statehood - r.e over a 'long' period of time. I find that a bit short-sighted to say the least. Death by a thousand cuts sounds like an appropriate analogy. In fact, I wasn't aware that much public land had been sold - and find it alarming. I abhor those that buy up land connected to access points and post them to keep others out.
You also seem to dismiss the idea of the effect of a smaller decision pool. Have all the outfitter associations get together and approach the USFS about restricting hunting in the wilderness only to guides and people using guides. Will never gain traction.
