[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 274665, member: 3373"] Mostly true. First, section lines are just that, quarter lines are not the same as section lines. Section lines run every mile as opposed to quarter lines which are every 1/2 mile. Section lines overlap some 1/4 lines but not all. I'm sure we all realize that section lines run every mole and quarter lines then divide that section into 4 1/4's. Some section lines are not owned by the landowner. Case being when some section lines were actually purchased to build a road for example. Once again it might be just easier to visit with that landowner and save the trouble of an argument. Point out that you are trying to find a legal way to the property you want to hunt. Another situation is that not all trails are open to the public. The rule states "Normally used for travel" in the situation of driving off the trail for big-game. Had a situation many years ago where a warden thought I was driving off trail and when I told him that this well worn trail was a road. His argument was that it was only used by the farmer and was well worn because of the truck traffic in the fall. He told me a legal trail was "Normally used for travel or a section line." I then reminded him that what I thought was a legal trail was indeed a section line. When he realized that it was a section line all was OK. [/QUOTE]
