SFR Corner crossing update

Sorta fishing-related
Unfortunately large tracts of Montana, including public land has been/is being converted to private fishing/hunting/playgrounds for the wealthy elite.
 
Is this not what the series, "Yellowstone" is loosely based on?

If it's public land, the public should have the right to go there. Period.
How is this even something people are discussing with a straight face?

The same exact group is fighting on the other hand for grazing rights on public land...

"For years we’ve watched American Prairie Reserve acquire ranch after ranch in Montana and take them out of agricultural production.

But there’s one critical factor that could derail APR’s entire plan. Throughout their target area are BLM grazing allotments currently reserved for livestock. APR wants to “retire” & “rewild” these allotments, and they’ve asked BLM to change their policy to allow them to do so. In July 2022 BLM approved that request. "
 
I had no idea about any of this until this thread.

I found this interesting and gave a history of the case (corner crossing info starts around the 30 minute mark). Sorry if this is repeated info-

There's another episode of meateater they have the actual hunters that are being sued on the show. It's interesting hearing the accounting of the situation from their perspective. Episode 342.
 
This dispute is a good reason to support and kick a few dollars up to Backcountry Hunters & Anglers.
BHA provided resources in this precedent setting litigation so that the citizen hunters weren't steam rollered by the uber wealthy landowner's lawyers.
If this goes on appeal, I fully expect BHA to remain engaged.

He is a California transplant.

Technically yes, you could label Montana's Governor Gianforte as a California transplant. He was born in San Diego and moved to Pennsylvania at the age of 3 where he lived until he left to attend college in New Jersey. He Co-founded a software company while living in New Jersey that was purchased by Oracle Corp. in 2011, it was then than he left New Jersey and moved to Montana. At his current age of 62, 3 years of residency as an infant in California hardly supports the mantra of "another California transplant" ruining Montana though.
