Trump Administration Considers Land Exchange Involving Yosemite National Park ParcelPreviousNext

Reports indicate the Trump administration is considering a land exchange involving a quarter-mile parcel of Yosemite National Park with Kingsbarn Realty Capital, a Nevada-based developer. The proposal aims to grant the developer access via a private road, potentially increasing the property's value. The National Park Service has been involved in discussions for over a year. Past similar development attempts faced legal and environmental challenges, and the land to be exchanged has yet to be determined.
