NM Stream Access 

We'll have more guidance after the NM Supreme Court issues their full opinion explaining the ruling. My assumption is that dry river beds will not be treated the same as flowing streams and rivers. The basis for public access to rivers and streams is that the pubic has a right to recreate in the water. I think a test of reasonability would suggest that if there is no water then that public access component does not apply. There may end up being exceptions, like perhaps a waterway that has water in most segments, but has short dry sections that need to be crossed to access the next pool or flowing segment? In short, right now we just don't know but this is one of the nuances that will have to be addressed in the near future.
