state lands

Government-owned acreage

State lands are territories owned and managed by a state government rather than by federal, local, or private entities.

These include forests, parks, wildlife areas, and other public holdings: The hiking trail crosses state lands for about three miles.

State lands may be open for recreation, conservation, or resource extraction depending on their designated use.
