Subject: WARNING: Big River Regional Trail Landslide
Just wanted to let folks now that if you have or are considering bypassing the orange plastic security fence that was put up do to landslide that it's not worth it; I had done so a couple of times on my road bike because I saw others doing it and they said it was easily passable. While this may be true, the DNR was cherry picking folks coming off trail last Saturday night and issuing $100-$300 tickets. I'm still bitter, but those guys can be dinks and I don't feel they are completely worried about everyone's safety because the entrance and exit are hardly secure. Also, they might post a sign making it clear that fines will be issued if caught on trail. This would have deterred me and many others. Anyway, don't do it.

Ah.  I rode by there a few weeks ago, on 13, and noticed the fencing.  But I had never gone down on the trail before, so we didn't even bother.  Thanks for the warning.
