A very good article from Range Magazine:

Through litigation and legislation, environmentalists have dramatically increased the number of protected areas in America, the acreage protected, put restrictions on multiple use, and restrictions on private property located anywhere near the parks. In the process, they have converted what was once a small and relatively benign system of protected areas into a large network of increasingly linked sites that can threaten property ownership, restrict property use, degrade property resources, increase property management and development costs, and reduce property value.
