Establishment of the trail has divided the Lyle-area community in Klickitat County, Washington.
"For a decade, the Klickitat Trail has been a trek past 'no trespassing' signs and even barbed-wire barricades erected by adjacent landowners who say that, with the railroad gone, the property is theirs. The state attorney general's office has said from the beginning that those signs and barricades obstructing the trail are illegal, and county officials have cited at least two people but not for erecting the signs. For ignoring them. Welcome to the Klickitat Trail, Washington's most beautiful nightmare where the Klickitat River burbles by, where golden eagles soar overhead and where, in addition to sturdy shoes, you may also need wire cutters and an attorney."
