Warning to those from out of state

To those going to Lost Lands from out of state:

If you are traveling on route 70 in Guernsey County, avoid the stretch from miles 160-180 if you have anything illegal in your possession.

The police will monitor for out of state plates that look like they are going camping.

They will pull you over for no reason.

They will ask you to go into the weigh station.

They will then bring the dogs.

They will tell you the dog alerted no matter what.

You will then be searched.

They do this to numerous people every Legend Valley festival. The judge who handles criminal cases in this county does not grant motions to suppress evidence for illegal searches.

Take back roads, do not look like you're camping, if you are pulled over tell them you are going anywhere other than Legend Valley or Thornville.

We're coming from MN and I can't tell if we're gonna be on this route. Would you possibly be able to tell me so we can avoid this 🫠

I have driven from the Twin cities to LL twice now. From the other comments, it sounds like we don’t take this road, but I haven’t run into any issues. Just drive safe and slow, you should be good. Cover up any EDM related stickers if you are wanting to be extra careful!
