Ruby River Stream Access Win

[katqanna]

Stream access proponents claim win in bridge case over Ruby River

“If we hadn’t fought this, I’m afraid we’d be looking at ‘No Trespassing’ signs and electric fences across the state,” Gibson said. “Somebody had to stop these people.”

From the ruling,

Now therefore it is hereby ordered as follows: 1. The width of the county road known as Seyler Lane at sections described and shown on Exhibit 1-A are as follows: A-A 50 feet, B-B 50 feet, C-C 39 feet, D-D 47.5, E-E 47.5 feet, F-F 44 feet, G-G 65 feet, H-H 50 feet, I-I 50 feet.

Woohoo. Thank you PLWA. On a sad note, Lorry Thomas, one of these stream access champions and one of the founders of the Coalition for Stream Access and the Coalition for Access to State Lands, President of Anaconda Sportsmen's Club, died a few days ago and didn't get to share in this hard fought ruling victory.
