Title: Anyone seen this yet?
Post by: wilburz on April 19, 2007, 11:56:01 AM
Was out riding the sweet new trail system recently and came across some forest employees. they were cutting down perfectly fine live trees and using them as a blockaid, so that riders would not and could not go off the actual trail where there were already existing "shortcuts", like when the trail goes a little outside and around an old tree trunk or obstacle. Now they are making it so that you have to either nogotiate the obstacle or turn around. You cannot go around them anymore.  Next thing you know they will be putting up barbed-wire on each side of the sweet trail system so you don't actually wonder off the main trail and hit a scrub jay or newt.  ??? >:(

Maybe they'll put a fence on both sides of the trail ; like the turnpike with a rest area to look at the forest clearcutting crews.

I wonder why they couldn't  just remove the objects from the trail???
