Hi Mike,
Sorry I don’t follow this topic more closely but I would think with the mixed-used of national forests, it is best to use boundary=protected_area[1] but I know it has been discussed a bunch, so someone might have an even better answer. =Russ [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:boundary%3Dprotected_area From: Mike Thompson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 02, 2015 3:45 PM To: Open Street Map Talk-US Subject: [Talk-us] National Forest "nature_reserve"? Some US National Forests, such as the Arapaho National Forest in Colorado[1] are tagged "leisure=nature_reserve" is this correct? National Forests per say are not nature reserves. In most cases logging, grazing, fishing, hunting, shooting and off road vehicle use are allowed, hardly a "nature_reserve. Roosevelt national Forest [2] does not have the "leisure=nature_reserve" tag, so at the very least we are probably being inconsistent.
