The NRA does not get involved with things like you're talking about super hunt54. The big ranchers that own millions of acres have the politicians in their hip pocket and it's mostly politicians that are holding us back from getting access to OUR public land. Montana actually had a Bill introduced in their Legislature a year or two ago to allow corner crossing and it was defeated, all because of the backlash by big ranchers who cried that their property would be ruined by the public, LOL! As much as I hate to say it, IMHO this needs to be taken care of at the national level such that every state has to allow access to landlocked public property in one way or another. That is another very slippery slope to cross when you are talking about the Feds and individual state's rights. IMHO corner crossing would be the very simple one to solve in that wherever there is no legal corned marker a survey could be done and a permanent marker could be installed such that crossing there would do no damage to the private property on either side. Many corners like we're talking about are already marked. It is a whole different situation and difficult to figure out what could be done to allow access onto public property that is completely surrounded by private property. It would almost be necessary to use eminent domain to take a chunk of the private land and make it public land so that it could be legally accessed by the public if a rancher would not sell that piece voluntarily for a fair price and I doubt that will ever happen.

Jeepkid---What you have stated sounds very simple, but when you start talking politics like I mentioned in my other paragraph it's not that simple!
