Adverse user sufficient to establish a public highway by prescription is not shown, where it appears that the way was first built as a skid road on private property for private logging purposes, and afterwards used as a tram road for logging, and travel over it was similar to that over other logging roads generally regarded as private ways, and on the first claim to a public right, the owners erected gates and notices; since the use was only permissive in its character.</p>
