Public Lands Access: Helicopters, Corner Crossing, E-Bikes, and More
Episode 208
Tuesday, 28 October, 2025
In this episode, Dave and Nephi dive into the creative ways people are accessing their public lands. Topics include: Dave's successful big game hunt; Nephi's slow start to the season; using the Congressional Review Act to overturn a barred owl management plan; an update on the corner crossing case; why you still shouldn't cross from state land to state land at corners; the use of helicopters to access public lands; are helicopter pilots dropping hunters on public land considered outfitters; use of ebikes for access; why just because you can do something doesn't always mean you should; whether it should be easy for everyone to access all public lands; how states could ban certain activities on public lands (i.e. hunting) without banning access; and more. This discussion gets more pointed than most, with lots of points and counterpoints. Give it a listen, and then send us your thoughts at yourmountain@itsyourmountain.com.
