Broken gate.
I hope the ones who broke the gate has a conscious and it torments them.
If I were guessing, I think the ones who broke the gate were more than likely snowmobile riders. We have this problem here in the mountains of Tn.. The National Forest gates the roads due to traffic misuse by users. The dirt and gravel roads will not hold up in the winter months due to freezing thawing of the earth. Traffic use destroys the roads and, this a great expense to the tax payers money that funds the National Forest Service.

It is more likely hunters. That area is popular with the local hunters and from what I've read the snowpack was not that great so it was probably not snowmobilers.
