      Tried to hike this today as an easy day activity from Usery Rd. There are numerous signs of NO TRESPASSING and threats of prosecution for those caught either jumping the ROAD CLOSED gate or barb wire perimeter fencing. This should be removed or tagged as no longer a valid trail.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
