Despite warning signs to keep out, hundreds of people hopped fences to get to the bottom of Albion Falls. City officials say they have had to repair the temporary fencing several times since it went up on Friday.

The city plans to put chain link fencing in place of the temporary fencing this week and are also considering trespassing tickets.

So far this year five people had to be rescued from the Hamilton waterfall and last month a man in his twenties fell to his death.
