[at-l] Flagrant ATV Violators



Poorly built ones do.

The ones I build don't -- albeit some mountain bike folk do play in them.

FYI (Assuming your font spacing is the same as mine.):

Direction of travel --------------------------------------------------->
 (i.e. in this case, <-- road back to left; wilderness to right -->
                       __
 Ground        /      \     <--- Hump
 level           /           \
 ------------/-------------- \                           |--------------
                    |                 \  <-- 30-45*     | <--- Nearly
             4 to 5 feet              \    sloop     |         vertical
                    |                          \            |           wall
                    |                               \___|

If the top of the nearly vertical wall is a big rock, all the better.
