The road there is a county maintained easement through our property for neighbors living behind us and people traveling to the forest (which is still closed after last year's fire). I'm writing to ask you to please advise everyone that this IS private property and that they are NOT to leave the pavement. It is open range which means that cattle are present and can be anywhere grazing. At this time of year cows are with calves which can be a danger in an of itself. This area abounds with rattle snakes that have begun to come out with the nice weather. And there are lots of rocks of course for people to twist ankles, etc. The point is, liability is an issue, and it has become a three ring circus out here this year with people blatantly ignoring the No Trespassing signs and walking past them, climbing fences, driving across fields and up our dirt roads, camping, picnicking, hiking, littering, etc. This is NOT public land for these activities and will NOT be allowed nor tolerated. To the north of Hwy 166 just a short distance away and also at the Carrizo Monument, all of this is allowed. Please go there. Photographers have become a nuisance and a liability here this year, literally coming in by the truck loads and violating our private property rights. I don't want to start threatening people with lawsuits and court action. I've been civil and decent thus far this year, but I am at my limit. Please advise all that they are walking a thin line coming out here. Thank you
