- Title:
- A memo from the District Ranger in Moose Creek (W. Magnuson) to the Forest Supervisor c.1961.
- Creator:
- Magnuson, W.
- Date Created:
- 1961-07-26
- Description:
- This memo is discussing what should be done with the private land owned by six different landowners within the newly-assigned SBW wilderness boundaries. Among these landowners are George Case and Fae Smith. The Forest Service's desire seems to be to buy these lands out from under the landowners, but there seems to be a decent amount of resistence to this idea by the landowners themselves. Letters from the Forest Service about selling land went unanswered by five landowners, and the sixth, George Case, only showed middling interest.
