In Wyoming, if the state land is publicly accessible you can not prohibit or inhibit access to that parcel. You also are forbidden from leasing it as part of a hunting lease, and prohibited from allowing forbearing trapping on it. It is possible in some scenarios to get the access controlled by making a very compelling case to the state land board.
BLM land you will loose the BLM lease if you prohibit access to the blm ground if it is publicly accessible, ie from a public road. It's also possible in addition to loosing the lease to face a civil fine.
Parcels of State or Federal land that do not have public access you are under no requirements to allow free access to it, as neither the State nor the Federal's have an easement to it other than administrative purpose, by the state or federal employee's.
Lots of problems with irrational land owners and irresponsible "concerned sportsmen" have got all of us into a just nasty damn mess, every fall it seems.
