Public Access to Colorado's Streams
A group of recreation advocates, including the Colorado Stream Access Coalition, are seeking clarity on public access to Colorado's streams.
They believe the public's right to use the state's waterways for recreation is guaranteed in the Colorado Constitution.
Our position is that under the Colorado Constitution, it’s always been understood that there was a public easement
— said Mark Squillace, a law professor at the University of Colorado Boulder and an expert on water and natural resources policy.
The Colorado Stream Access Coalition is fighting for this right, hoping Colorado lawmakers will settle the state’s legal gray area surrounding public river access.
