The Colorado River Outfitters Association is meeting in Pueblo at the Pueblo Convention Center. The main issue will be the River Outfitter Viability Act, which would explicitly permit outfitters to float rivers that go through private properties.
The Denver Post covers the dispute at the heart of the act, House Bill 1188, sponsored by Rep. Kathleen Curry of Gunnison. While floating through private land is not a criminal act in Colorado, it isn’t clear whether it is a civil infraction or not.
