No, Hearts Content is part of a FOREST.  A forest is a system,  where
trees and their associates are so highly ordered in their connections
that they all survive at a high quality state. This area has not been
cut in over 400 years.  Their are trails for the public and you enter at
your own risk on foot.  It is not a road and cars have no right in the
forest.  However in general we have been very successful in making many
roads in our forest out of the lack of understanding of tree biology. 
Some countries have common sense and are closing the roads and
replanting trees.  They do this in hopes that they have not broken to
many connections.  

My suggestion to you is find someone who has an education in TREE
BIOLOGY and let them write the rule books for your trees.

I wonder if a thoracic surgeon would be allowed to do a heart transplant
if her or she did not know the difference between the patients hand and
foot?  But yet,  we allow people to make rules about our forest that do
not understand tree biology.  One question you could ask the person who
is writing the rule books is please tell me five major differences
between a woody root and a woody stem.  They should know a little bit
about the symplast and the apoplast.  They should know the different
water requirements for ring porous, diffuse porous and conifer trees. 
They should know a little something about palms as well.

For your information here is my education back ground.
