Snowmobilers, along with other outdoor recreatlonlsts such as hikers, hunters, fisherm e n , bird watchers and others are dependent on the goodwill of landowners. Most of their recreation depends on the availability of public land,\ the commissioners noted. \ I f a group of snowmobilers I r ritates a landowner into putting up posted signs, these signs will probably remain up, closing the land to all snowmobilers andpro- bably fo all other outdoorsmen as w e ll.
