I know 3 or 4 people who own property adjacent to different state and
national forests. They like it because of the unlikelihood of future
development. (Go ahead Bush-bashers, interject here). What you see is what
you get, and for undeveloped land, it is usually well-maintained as regards
fire control and wildlife management. I can see many, many pros and very few
cons.

Good luck,
Warren
