Supreme Court Declines to Hear Corner-Crossing Case
The Supreme Court declined to hear a case involving four hunters from Missouri who crossed a corner in Wyoming, leaving the issue of accessing public land in the West unresolved.
The Court did not provide a reason for its decision, which means that corner crossing remains legal in some states, including Oklahoma, Kansas, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah, but remains a gray area elsewhere.

According to the hunters' attorney, Ryan Semerad, the issue is settled in part of the West, but the lack of a final decision leaves uncertainty for hunters in other areas.
