A years-long battle over property rights changed how one Colorado woman used social media when she had to go “to war” with the local government over her own backyard.
Adopting the moniker of the Wicked Witch of the West, Taralyn Romero’s concerns over her property lines made her endure enmity from the public and officials alike after she bought a home in Kittredge, Colorado. There, the selling point of a creek running through the backyard had kickstarted a dispute over land rights with a neighboring park that had her welcoming a lawsuit when it had come.
“Now we can just go to war, and I don’t have to pretend anymore,” she told Fox News Digital amid a three-part series covering her saga against government overreach. “I said, ‘We’re gonna fight for this because owning property in this country is synonymous with the pursuit of happiness.’” more

In general, if the water is navigable, the state owns it and its adjacent beaches. “Navigable” is fuzzy — can a log float down it.
Even if the water is not navigable, if the public has been using the beach areas continuously for a certain number of years, there is a proscriptive easment. If not, the owner can stop people from exiting the water onto his dry land but probably can’t stop them from walking in the stream from one property to another.
This woman should have determined these issues with a survey and title insurance before she bought the property.
She’s up the creek!
At least the creek was not deemed a navigable waterway.
