We bought an old school. Lake. Our back border fronts an apartment complex. Chain link fence. Kids cut through the fence, walked across out dam. throwing fast food wrappers, using our property as a shortcut.

I put up "No Trespassing," did not even slow them down. "CCTV Cameras," no help, "Dangerous dogs." Zero. I patch the chain link fence. They cut through and kept coming.

'Til I got magic signs and posted them on my side of the fence. Totally silent since! Get on eBay and get some of these.

It's probably the same assailants. Perhaps you should use game cameras or cctv like your sign says and see if you can catch them in the act. Then follow up with law enforcement.

A friend did this and the little beggars climbed the trees and stole the cameras!
 
When I was growing up my mother would take us up camping up big cottonwood canyon or any of the other canyon's close to home. Less than a 30 min. Drive from our house up to Brighton ski resort and silver lake. We always walked around the the entire lake with out any problems. Until one day they put up a sign that says no trespassing. Being kids we ignored it Constantly. Until a guy came out screaming at us that we were trespassing and he is calling the police. Fast forward just this year a home owner decided he was going to sit out with a shot gun and wait for a skier to come by and show them that this was his property. I guarantee skiers were using that road long before he showed up. So my question is was this something that you just bought and decided you don't like kids cutting thru? And if it is have you talked to the people that think maybe it's you that's taking away access that they've always had? In short private property is always private property but you just can't move in without understanding the local culture.

Please remember that next time I feel like dancing naked on your property 🤣
