12 V.S.A. § 5791 — Purpose

Open on EZRCP

Rule text

The purpose of this chapter is to encourage owners to make their land and water available to the public for no consideration for recreational uses by clearly establishing a rule that an owner shall have no greater duty of care to a person who, without consideration, enters or goes upon the owner's land for a recreational use than the owner would have to a trespasser. (Added 1997, No. 110 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
