Thanks MCH. You're correct that there have been multiple bills to clarify that it's either legal or illegal. All have failed to pass. And that's why there's the gray area of how a judge would interpret the criminal trespass law. One judge in WY ruled that it's not trespassing but obviously that's only the case law under his jurisdiction. Did the two you know of that were cited go to court? A lot has changed since the ad coelum doctrine was the law of the land. You should try to get cited and go to court so there's some case law one way or the other. smile grin
