What's going on here?

Abraham's Valley, Cannock Chase. 3:50pm, Saturday, 7th January 2012.

I'm sure there must be a perfectly innocent explanation for this. Two vehicles, driving off-load, up Abraham's Valley on the Chase toward Rifle Range Corner. I have never, ever seen vehicles of this type here. It's not an easy to get to spot. I've only ever seen loggers or rangers here, and these guys were neither. The guy in the hatchback had his head covered, and topped to look back at me after he passed. It made me uneasy.

I've seen official off-roaders in the forest at places like Lower Cliff and Sherbrook Valley - they usually have official vehicles with them and drive differently.

It these vehicles are legal, fine, but it's a worrying development. If not, how the hell did they get here're? Sadly I didn't get either reg but the car was R-reg and the 4WD N-reg.

A mystery.

If it's a green lane, then they are allowed. But, coursing springs to mind. Any dogs in the back?

@lanzecki It’s not a green lane. It’s a closed, and hard to get to, forest track.
