@livinginmontana. So I’m just curious, what happens when those people camped above the high water mark get injured on your property? Do they sue you and your insurance policy? If so I don’t know how it would be even possible to get insurance. Hopefully you then sue Montana. The government should never have the right to force you to allow strangers on your private property. This has to be a constitutional violation. But I do agree that all access to the high water mark should be public.

@mtlefty8687 2 жыл бұрын

A person cannot cross private property to access the water so a pond/lake surrounded by private property is off limits unless a river runs through it and access is gained to the river at a public site (bridge, etc.) and then the person travels down the river below high water mark to lake.

@joeguarino1227 3 жыл бұрын

Can you clarify the “camping” aspect again ? I looked for the link that you suggested to the law, but could not find it. If one can camp above the high water mark, yet out of view of the properties residence (?), then why have a low water or high water mark ? If I am understanding you correctly (and in my opinion), on a class 1 river the water marks are useless ??

Understood on the "pins" at the high & low water marks, but can a person(s) actually come onto your property (i.e., beach a boat, raft, tube, etc., and enter your property)...?

No, only to the high water mark of the river.

With a creek (Crick) which is never deep enough for a boat, I assume that others can walk through up to the high water mark. My question: Can they hunt from that spot...shooting inside or outside of the watermark? OR is it like driving through private property (orange markings), in that visitors cannot shoot in this area, at all?

@LivinginMontana1 3 жыл бұрын

If landowners mark their property (orange markings) hunting is not allowed from the river.

So the public can access the river from the river correct? Not pull up in your driveway and walk through your property to the water? And now the way most people are they will trash it. Hiking through the Bob> The floaters leave trash and I mean non biodegradable trash. So as the land owner I guess I'll be down in the morning and watch you cleanup and move on, or perform a citizens arrest for litter and call the sheriff. I admire the intent but ethical sportsmen are a dying breed.
