[QUOTE="cowboy, post: 770531, member: 8833"] This problem is not going to go away as it has way too much publicity/momentum going on it. Let me state that I am a landowner (2 different States), as well as a sportsman/hunter. Corner crossing is illegal in Montana but not in the other State I own land. With that said - I will assume it is a legal State issue and not a federal issue. The State of Montana needs to come out and state strongly if it is either legal or illegal and will they prosecute to the max if someone tests it. AMEN As a landowner in Montana, if the verdict comes back that corner crossing is legal, I am going to be pizzed, but I'm a big boy and I will abide by the law. We land owners are the most independent SOB's that God ever created. If it is determined to be illegal then as a sportsman/hunter I need to shut up and stay the hell off. If it is determined to be illegal than as sportsman/hunters we need to determine if it is worth the fight because I will assure you that all the Sportsman in Montana don't have enough money to either have the corners surveyed or be able to pay to trade parcels of land with individual land owners, or foot the bill to buy access from various/multiple landowners. The last survey I had done on a parcel of land I could have bought the same rifle Broz is having built along with his new nightforce when I paid that bill after recording the title. Not economically feasible. As far as having land appraised and then trading parcels. This is even more cost prohibitive. Going through that right now as I lost my last parent this past April. My family has been in agriculture long before I hit this earth and now it is time to determine what things are worth so it may be taken care of according to their wishes. The State of Montana would have to buy a dozen buses, hire and fill them with lawyers, and then do it again on the accounting side. Not economically feasible. This whole thing can be cleared up by determining the legality. I as a land owner don't want that determination - I have everything to loose and nothing to gain. I as a sportsman/hunter have everything to gain and nothing to loose. I think it is time for our new "Rep" attorney general to start earning his keep and rule on this - 5 years and 3 courts higher we will know where we stand. [/QUOTE]
