The only legal remedy that could work for you is an "implied easement" that is only allowed in certain states and locales. Check your local land laws. In my opinion, it should not be allowed anywhere. It's a remnant of Old English Law, and empowers some people to steal rights from other's.
In the situation you described, you willingly used the land and maintained it to some degree, even though you did not own it, pay taxes on it, or get overt permission from the various property owners. As I see that is fine when it works. And if a property owner wants to stop you, that's fine too.
If you are trying to get any kind of "adverse use" or "adverse possession", your use would have to be ADVERSE. That means you were told by the owner to stay off the land, you did it anyway - in his face, and he did nothing to stop you.
Even a government, e.g. a town, does not get a "prescriptive easement" for a road unless they can prove some level of public use and/or maintenance over time.
Some states, in some areas have legal remedies for land-locked parcels to get limited access. That is not done for convenience, however. Just out of proven necessity, and called an "easement by necessity."
