The section is fenced, I know at least some of the fence is on the line, I can't say for sure if the entire section is correctly fenced, but none of it is very far off. Hurts my head also.

Maybe use the same technique to set out the bases on the little league field.

Hard to steal second, but easy to steal third.

I didn't do a count, but the number of incorrect statements in the article equals roughly the number of paragraphs.?ÿ

Is that guy a licensed Land Surveyor? What's he doing out there defining property boundaries? and how is he going about it?

Another USA handing off responsibility of maintenance to the locals who do not have a budget to run the public access area properly.

That is how we lost over half of the boatramps on our local lake.

No he's not licensed.?ÿ

I may have misread the article, the property is a 640 acre parcel, possibly the users only have 60 acres to carve out of the state parcel and that is the area he wants to mark, soooo,,,,who cares as long as it's internal to the section.

There was a group that went around about 15 years ago posting state lands, it was a real mess and I had thought that was over with. I did get some work out of it, getting hired to stake fence lines after the posts went up, some were over 500' off.?ÿ One land owner who had his well and stock tanks shown to be on public lands was really upset, the well was 300 feet north of his south line and the state land markers were north of the well.

They had a laptop,,,,,,,,and a GPS,,,,,,,,,and an article in the press like this one describing how precise it all was. ?ÿ

Kinda upset the local landowners.?ÿ

The lines usually followed a pattern similar to the path a fish makes swimming upstream.?ÿ
