I understand and respect private property, but I don't think it's acceptable for a company to own land inside a designated wilderness area and completely forbid access.

But these philosophical issues don't seem to be of concern for the folks who have written the Colorado Water Compact. We in Nevada get some, even though most of the rain fell in Utah and Colorado (the state). Hey, even Mexico SHOULD get some.

DWA is a public agency. I don't think their gig is a for-profit scam.
