Two Sedona men were sentenced in Federal Magistrate Court on March 5 for unauthorized trail construction on the Red Rock Ranger District of the Coconino National Forest.
“I was out at Beaverhead Flat. It had a history as being an area to go jump — there’s a lot of jumps out there — and I was actually practicing a new trick on one of the jumps,” Donohue said. “I was softening the landing up because I kept falling when I was landing. That’s when the officer walked up the trail and saw me.” For the full story, see the Friday, March 15, edition of the Sedona Red Rock News. |



One of those cited, David Donohue, 40, said it took the U.S. Forest Service 16 months to issue him a citation. Donohue was initially contacted by USFS Law Enforcement Officer Mike O’Neil in October 2011 as he was adding dirt a landing to soften it.
