No Trespassing

Many properties in Aeneas Valley have "No Trespassing" signs posted. Many people have not posted the signs, but expect people to know and understand that no one should trespass on private property, and this is all private property.
The public forest starts at about the top of Mount Anne to the north and the mountains to the south. So if you are unsure about whether you are walking on private property or public, don't cut across, especially if you are crossing a fence or gate. You know, they make maps that show where the public forests start.
Out here, not everyone plays nice. If you can, contact the owner of the property, ask for permission. Let them know your purpose and when you will be on the property.
Thankfully, the two people here are crossing with permission. A few others tried, mostly hunters or snowmobilers. Their trips on private property ended abruptly as they learned a little more about the facts of life and moved on to public lands.
Be sure to carry whatever it is you feel will deter the wild animals, too. Bear, cougar, wolves, and even deer can be aggressive at times. They are not likely to run from pepper spray, but it could happen. Are you feeling lucky today?
