Certainly the liability problem does cause the closure of a lot of lands. But,
there is no reason a private individual should allow anyone else on his
property for any reason except to be a nice guy. And that does not give me much
faith that a lot of collecting sites would remain open.
Also, sites are closed because people are so careless with other peoples
property — cut fences, open gates, dumped garbage, etc.
Unfortunately mineral/fossil collectors are not all sensible nice people.
