This tract was part of a state game lands which are referred to as WMA's (wildlife management areas) by some states. They were able to obtain the property by doing a land swap transfer. The game comm. received property in the same county in exchange for this tract. I think the other land was power company property. I may be biased, but I always considered this tract with the lake on it, to be the best piece of property on the whole gamelands. In Pa., the game and fish comm. are not combined. Who knows, if they were maybe this wouldn't have gone thru. The property they received was added to a existing game lands, but has a lot of public roads running thru it. I always thought that once property was gamelands, it would always remain that way. Like was said "enjoy each day".
