actually guys, it's getting pretty bad around here in regards to trails and them being gated or tank trapped. We used to have some amazing wheeling where you could drive on a old mountain logging trail that was a good mix of easy and really difficult for a day or two and not see anyone. Now most of those are gated or they have dug huge tank traps to block access.
It's really unfortunate because honestly most of these trails that i had been on did not show signs of real abuse like people would stereotype.... you know the moonshine redneck guys blasting up the hills in their big fords! Those guys do exist but they don't really destroy the trails.
The pics from above were from me looking at topo maps and seeing "jeep trail" marked between forest service roads. When we finally got to the trails we had scouted, they were all gated. All of them except one, and that's where those river pics are from.
