Monday.Come to find out....according to landowners and the U.S.Forest service,everyone has been trespassing.They just didn't enforce it until now,starting 7/4/03 if you are caught riding on the trails you will have to appear in Federal court.Evidently some people have not been treading lightly.I hope this doesn't happen at Natural Bridge State Park.Natural Bridge is owned by the state,so maybe this won't happen.We just have to TREAD LIGHTLY,and not act like a bunch of disrespectful kids. member#579. http://www.kentuckykrawlers.org

They've not closed Livingstone, yet. Some of the "trails" are actually county roads. However, other trails are on private land, or Forest Service land.

My friends were there on July 4. No Forest Service present, no arrests or anything like that. They said there were around "1,000 vehicles of off-road conveyance". Took 'em two hours to get from the trail head at the gas stations to the Pyramid or major fork in the trails.

Here's the website of Heartland Trail Riders Council:

You can sign a petition to keep Livingstone open and it has more information and contacts.
