” quite another to burn federal lands”

That is another Constitutional question.
According to the Constitution all lands in the States not privately owned shall be State owned. Since about the time of the Civil War and the Statehoods of the western states this was changed to Federal lands.
So, effectively the Federal government owns most of the land in the western states not the states themselves.
If that were the case the problem would be solved (more or less).
