``Arapaho National Forest Boundary Adjustment'' and dated November 6, 
2013, and described as lots three, four, eight, and nine of section 13, 
Township 4 North, Range 76 West, Sixth Principal Meridian, Colorado. A 
lot described in this subsection may be included in the boundary 
adjustment only after the Secretary of Agriculture obtains written

    (b) Bowen Gulch Protection Area.--The Secretary of Agriculture 
shall include all Federal land within the boundary described in 
subsection (a) in the Bowen Gulch Protection Area established under

    (c) Land and Water Conservation Fund.--For purposes of section 7 of 
the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965 (16 U.S.C. 460l-9), 
the boundaries of the Arapaho National Forest, as modified under 
subsection (a), shall be considered to be the boundaries of the Arapaho 
National Forest as in existence on January 1, 1965.
    (d) Acquisition.--The Secretary of Agriculture is authorized to 
acquire only by donation or exchange non-Federal lands within the 
boundary described in subsection (a).
    (e) Public Motorized Use.--Nothing in this Act opens privately-
owned lands within the boundary described in subsection (a) to public 
motorized use.
    (f) Access to Non-Federal Lands.--Notwithstanding the provisions of 
section 6(f) of the Colorado Wilderness Act of 1993 (16 U.S.C. 539j(f)) 
regarding motorized travel, the owners of any non-Federal lands within 
the boundary described in subsection (a) who historically have accessed 
their lands through lands now or hereafter owned by the United States 
within the boundary described in subsection (a) shall have the 
continued right of motorized access to their lands across the exiting
