I'm not sure I understand what Brad is saying is "simpler and better" here, as a well-constructed multipolygon in OSM is "a well-constructed multipolygon in OSM." We already know how to do that so I don't think we want to develop something else to represent the same thing. > > Is Brad or Mike proposing something else, like two multipolygons to describe one national forest? One polygon for the administrative boundary of the NF which was established by Congress. Zero or more polygons describing limitations on access (no need for polygons to for access=yes, we can assume that in a NF generally), whether they be due to private ownership, or other reasons. The above are two separate concepts, so it is ok to have two separate OSM elements, in my opinion. A relation for all would be ok too, as long as the private inholdings are not removed from the NF (which I think has been done in some cases).
