in regards to the old Richland Rd trail, the EPA got involved on it last year over people driving through the creek area near the cemetery, it’s headwater that leads to trout water. a landowner down below in Buffalo Cove called in about dead trout
I’m very good friends with some of the landowners, they’re fellow members at Patriot Mtn Offroad, and in just relaying there 2 cents to try n help keep people from getting trouble, spoke with one yesterday who said the gates are indeed on the lower mid and upper ends
Richland Rd is no longer available, has been gated off by the landowners, popular misconception was that it had been a service rd, FACT: it was an abandoned easement, it reverted back to private property in 1983
