Occam may need a new blade on this one.

At least at version 10 and below of ArcMap, you can display a
statewide WMS like this one with no problems.  The full extent of this
service covers at least 3 UTM Zones.

Therefore I don't know if ArcGIS is sending an error "The specified coordinate exceeds the valid coordinate range" due to the fact  that the western edge of the county is in UTM 14, and not UTM 15, or if there is another issue that I need to fix.
