Management of Trails on Crown Land
The Federation of Mountain Clubs summarizes how trails on Crown land are administered in British Columbia. 

"Management of Trails on Crown Land

Forest and Range Practices Act
The Forest and Range Practices Act (FRPA) and its regulations govern the activities of forest and range licensees in BC. FRPA came into effect in 2004. Sections 56 to 58 of FRPA deal with recreation and are administered by the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and the Arts (Recreation Sites and Trails BC Branch)."
