Landowner claims BLM is his private property

[thusby]

It’s confusing indeed, and I always try to err on the side of caution. Here’s an example as I recall (it’s been two years or so), X marks a gate, I would’ve liked to have poked around that State Land parcel to the left in the image. There was no other road in to access it. Should’ve I have legally been allowed to open the gate and go through (closing it behind me, of course).

Absolutely.

Assuming that was public road.

Assuming that was public road.

Yup, sure was. I guess I just dumbly assumed that the public ownership of the road ended there. Not sure about the two track that turns off to the left toward that other state parcel, but I didn’t even take the opportunity to go find out.
