From Aug. 1 to Dec. 29, 2014, logs, branches and rocks were strewn on the Quarry and Lower Skull trails, located close to the 1200-block Dempsey Road in North Vancouver.

During the month of December, a video camera was set up on the trails with the hopes of capturing the suspect in the act.

The suspect has been charged with mischief to property and setting of a trap.

“These are serious charges,” North Vancouver RCMP Cpl. Richard De Jong said in a media release.

“These are public trails and one should not interfere with the lawful enjoyment of these trails and set up traps or obstacles to potentially endanger the lives of people using them.

“Fortunately no one was seriously hurt or injured in these incidents.”
