CASPER, Wyo. (AP) - Sports enthusiasts are worried about a possible trade of land run by the federal government, the state of Wyoming and a Casper businessman.

People who use the land for hunting and recreation say it would lock them out of more than 4,000 acres of public use.



According to the Casper Star-Tribune (https://tinyurl.com/zrbq4un ), the State Board of Land Commissioners will decide on Oct. 6.
