(If a locked gate blocks access to my claim?
California
The owner of an unpatented mining claim cannot be denied access to his property by federal law. Generally, if a locked gate is preventing you from accessing your claim, the Forest Service (or appropriate agency) must provide you with a key.)
This is what I've gotten so far off the internet so My question is, What about though a hydro electric plant road. Not into the actual station as it is fenced around but down the dirt road passing the station to the river access. The road is about a mile off main road down to River and has a gate that is locked about half way down. It does have access to Pedestrian crossing I believe used by rafters. If the claim is down passed the station should I be able to legally get access?
