Thread: Farmer lying about paper road?

You are mixing up ownership a bit: Often farm tracks may 'sort of' follow a paper road alignment. Therefore you will be trepassing if you do not rigidly stick to the purple alignment shown on WAMS. Which is what makes using paper roads so difficult. Often the terrain means no vehicle could stick to the true paper road alignment, so each time you wander back onto the bit of the track thats on the farmers land, you are tresspassing. If, however you walk or manage to stick ridgidly to the true paper road alignment, you have remained on public land. It may look like farmland, it may smell like farmland, it may taste like farmland, but the purple bit is public road.
