“I came from BC a few years ago and was fortunate enough to find a few acres here around St. John’s. All I got for my troubles was a crew of ATVs and skidoos ripping through my property at all hours of the day all year long. I put up signs, they ignore them or break them off. I put up a fence, the buggers tear it down … more than once. I put up a trail cam on advice from RNC because apparently I am the one responsible for providing proof, and they stole the cam. Wtf is with people here?!? Does no one have ANY respect for someone else’s private property? I pay outrageous property taxes on this land. I pay my &*%$ing mortgage for buying this land, I didn’t realise that was so I could provide a public park and trail system. So now with signs, fencing, and the lost cam I’m out about a grand … and they still come and go as they please. Nice. Real nice. My next purchase is going to be a shotgun.” - Boomshanker

Spike strips.
Gunna say the same. Put a private property sign and a few upright nails.
Unfortunately in these parts, town belongs to pick up trucks, motorbikes, and busted Honda Civics, everywhere else belongs to ATVs and skidoos, people who like to walk, bike, enjoy their own private space, are vastly outnumbered by ignorant, entitled hillbillies. They don’t show that in the tourism ads.
