    Default Trespass Across a Power Line Right of Way

    Montana. We have a powerline right of way across our land.We have post 'no trespassing signs. Atv riders and hunters tear our signs down and are very distructive.We call the sheriff and they say they wont do anything because the trespassers will be gone by the time they get there anyway. We dont know what to do anymore.If we put up a gate , which we are allowed to do , they will tear it down too.

    What will the sheriff do if you can provide photos or videotape?

    Well actually that is what they told us to do.But seems we cant get there in time either.They know they are in the wrong and run when they see us coming too.Or they are in the middle of the night. Ive got the power company calling me tommorrow we will see what they will do about it.Thanks for you reply.

    Perhaps a trail camera?

    Thats a great idea! Talked to BPA today and they are going to see about putting up a gate for us.If these stinkers tear down the BPA's gate i bet we get some quick action if caught on camera
