Hi Guys,
We are having many issues with ATVs on trails in the gilford area. We have a couple esstential areas that are very sensitive to this. We need everyones help to keep the ATVs off the trails unless they are marked open for ATV use. The Gilford-Laconia area has NONE of these areas. If this keeps up we will lose Cor. 15 through Gilford which will cut off all services and lake access through the area. Please feel free to contact me for more info of with information/reg numbers and location of ATVs if you pass any.

Thanks!

That Sucks! I am an ATV rider too..........my ATV's are parked in the winter. It sucks that these few jackasses are going to ruin the trails for the rest of us.

Agreed and a set of ATV ruts on a known good snowmobile trail could really, ruin someones day/night, BAD.....

sounds like a Police / Fish & Game enforcment issue. although a motion activated camera on the trail sides would film the culprits for crimianal charges.

in new durham we had major problems. Fish and game did help and the atv started a club now problem are minimal. Start buy educating local police and fish and game. local police would not let ATV go back home they had to call and be picked up with trailers better then a ticket
