Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources issued the following announcement on Dec. 2. At one time, workers with the state’s Na Ala Hele Trails and Access System counted 21 illegal trails crossing the popular Pineapple Express mountain bike trail at the Kahakapao Recreational Area.  A series of legal, planned, and engineered trails at Kahakapao provide thrills and fun for mountain bikers of all ages and experience levels, as well as for hiking and horseback riding. For everyone’s safety, certain trails were built to keep various uses separated.  Scott Fretz, the Maui Branch manager for the DLNR Division of Forestry and Wildlife (DOFAW) explained, “This network of bike, equestrian, and pedestrian trails were put together through a planned process and to a degree they separate out different users for safety. There are specific trails where you don’t want to have bikes and pedestrians mixing; where bicyclists are moving very fast.”
