The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission voted to not accept a $2.4 million Environmental Trust Fund grant award intended to be used to purchase a portion of Snake Falls Ranch. Commissioners met Oct. 27 at Fort Robinson State Park near Crawford. Game and Parks had hoped to collaborate with the Snake Falls Sportsmen’s Club to purchase a portion of the land along the Snake River in Cherry County to allow limited public access to the prized trout water, as well as Snake Falls. However, by Oct. 27, the Snake Falls Sportsmen’s Club had not assured Game and Parks it would join the agency in the purchase. For more Nebraska Game and Parks news, visit www.outdoornebraska.ne.gov.
