You are welcome to enter and exit by water or air. But what you can not do, is invade someone else's land. So rent a chopper, and get airlifted in and out, if you must hunt that property. (Or ask nicely, and clean up your own trash, which so few actually do).
To take by Eminent domain, is still thieft of property, just run through the courts, and forced on the land owner. Does that make it any easier to accept it as theft?. And you want to do it every couple of miles, for your convenience? No. Not just no, but hell NO!
You believe you have a Right to access, and you do, as long as it does NOT interfere with anyone else's Right to Property.
You might want to reread the Founding Fathers, and the Documents that define this country.
That Right to Pursue Happiness, was not the first rendition, nor does it mean you can have or do anything you want.
The original line was Life, Liberty, and Property. It was revised by Jefferson, who's muse was Locke. It was Locke using the phrase Pursuit of Happiness. It does not mean you can marry a goat, or have sex with farm animals, if it makes you happy. It means Career Path. The choice to choose your own life, and destiny. That no one could decide for you what you would be. It was revised, because Jefferson believed persuit of Happiness included property.
A great deal of the Constitution and Bill of rights, is about right to property, and the defense of it, and what it requires to ever deprive someone of it. It was the basis of the right to vote (the Franchise).Only LANDED men could vote, no drummers (bums or traveling men), you had to have a stake in the outcome of the election. It had to matter, it had to effect your future, your property. Property Rights are fundamental to freedom itself.
(At a guess, I would bet you would be in favor of doing away with patents and copywrites as well.)

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.
