    Hunting Lease use of Easement

    I have a situation that I can't seem to find any clear information on surrounding the use of an easement on my property. I own 600 acres of planted trees and in the furthest back corner of our property is about 300 acres that is land locked due to a non-navigable waterway that keeps the...
