Ever wondered if corner crossing from one public parcel to another is legal? In this episode of the Western Rookie Podcast, host Brian Krebs dives into the groundbreaking case involving four Missouri hunters in Wyoming, which has set a historic precedent for public land access. Learn about the history behind checkerboard land ownership, how corner crossing became a major legal battle, and the recent court decisions that could potentially open millions of acres of previously inaccessible public lands across the West.

You'll gain insights into the complex origins of checkerboard maps dating back to the 1860s, how landownership and public access conflicts have evolved, and why the recent court rulings from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals are monumental for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. Brian also discusses important considerations for legally corner crossing, respecting private landowners, and the potential implications for future hunting opportunities.

Whether you're a seasoned public land hunter or simply interested in the future of outdoor recreation in the West, this episode provides critical knowledge on navigating new legal terrain and expanding your hunting possibilities. Tune in, stay informed, and discover what this landmark decision means for your next hunting adventure!
