Accessibility Day

The land trust hosts an annual “Accessibility Day” for those who otherwise would be unable to reach the views and/or summit of the Pinnacle (part of a 2,000-acre ridgeline conservation project by the group). For adults who have difficulty walking, this is the chance to visit—perhaps with a grandchild or friend—a spot that would have been otherwise impossible.

A local auto dealership provides a four-wheel drive vehicle, and board members provide other appropriate vehicles to navigate access to the logging and/or rough access road to a lookout point. Others bring food and drinks.
