Light-Sport Aircraft Yahoo group Still unclear about amphibious landing sites

I know that lakes built here in the US by the Army Corp of Engineers are off limits for landing. But beyond that about all I've heard is that you need permission from the lakeowner on private property, which sounds reasonable for little private lakes. Yes I know that Alaska is pretty much a mecca for float planes.(haven't studied details) But a CFI told me the other day that rivers were often a good spot.

If it's fairly restrictive then that pretty much takes away any ideas of cross-country spontaneity doesn't it. I don't think sectional maps would be much help either. The FAA doesn't concern itself with matters once you're out of the air. I guess you just have to be fast enough to outrun the game warden, huh? LOL!

It would be nice to land on the water, then camp on a lake beach.
