Legal Question in Personal Injury in Massachusetts

Accident on my land

I have an easement for powerlines to

the right of my land. It is mainly

rough land however it is also the

favorite path for Motorcycles, Horse

riding, Skidoos etc etc.

The question is.. if someone falls off

or hurts themselves on this land am

I liable?

If the answer is yes then how do I

protect myself against this.

thanks

Matthew
