I have noticed just that, snow = free for all, + they can get away with it easier, so, forget calling asking permission, posted land means nothing, that is quite evident by what they do. Marked trails seem to be fine, and they don't seem to bother thing, just the same I don't really want them on the land, I will try and deter them by cutting off access, if the snow gets ahead of that they sort of win, we have deep snow now, and they have total access.
What I don't like is the jerk at 3am with what sounds like an open header, laying into the throttle to fly across the bottom field, really inconsiderate and when that happens I will carefully track down there and leave something to get tangled in their track. I'm would not use booby traps that would cause injury with any of them be it atvs, or sleds, however if they cut fence and annoy me, I will do everything I can to flatten a tire or screw up a track. Seems I don't have that person coming through anymore. Its been quiet, but I would think they are due in by now, and for the most part, I ignore them because its a waste of time if they have access, be it fences down, non existent, last atv cut the chain on my gate, so in the spring I'll fix everything again.
There certainly is the mentality I will go where I please. I have nothing against these folks, they are always told politely whenever possible, all of them are just a pain in the @ss at different times, a distraction that draws attention and always makes extra work.
They have a trail system, so use it, ATV's do not and those I keep a lid on because they are a security threat, also given the power lines and the current events, I'll bet they will be finding ways to restrict, secure, or monitor those areas, same reason I don't like any of them around, if I don't know you, what your honest intentions are its best you stay out.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
