Riding a atv on unposted private property

I was recently driving my atv on atv trails around were i live and i was heading down a narrow path when a game warden jumped out in front of me and forced me to stop. He told me i was traveling on sub leased property that is owned by a coal company that leased it to them as a animal reserve. The way that i enter these trails this is no Pa Game Commision signs anywhere to be seen, The closet road to wear he stpped me is appx. 2 miles away and its a state owned paved road now out on that road there are several game lands that are heavily signed and posted about unathorized motor vehicles however the parcel that i was traveling on that is sub leased through the coal company there are no game commision signs or even property owner posted signs. i asked the warden about that and made him aware of it he was to busy writing the citiation and didnt care. I received the citation and he has it written up as ''control of property'' unlawfully operate a conveyance propelled my motorized power on property under commision lease with permission of the person in charge of the property. as i stated there are no land parcel maps or even no tresspassing signs any where near were i was. also on the citation under my information has the wrong zip code.
