Reminder: LLJ Provincial Park Winter Use

From the BC Parks website:
During the winter the area is used for cross-country skiing with no vehicle access.
Unfortunately, the well-established snowshoe and ski trails were destroyed by snowmobilers in the last few days. This afternoon we had to cut our trek in the park short because of snowmobilers who were zipping around at high speeds. The riders were young -- clues: no helmet, no hat, no coat, kinda reckless ;-) -- so may not be aware of the regulations. If you know who they are, please advise them.

Where in the park was this happening? There aren't that may trails in the provincial Park that are accessible on a snowmobile.

I was up at LLJ sledding this weekend and didn't see any young riders as described.

That's a great map, Steve! I should have said the LLJ Park area designated as a campground -- accessible from the lake.
