Disabled riders & trails

["Karen Schwartz" <karlar@flash.net>]

Hi Don,

  Hmmmm.  You just might be on to something here.

  As someone who has some familiarity with the due process guarantees accorded by federal law to the disabled, I think this approach might be very powerful in quickly  capturing the attention and respect of both bureaucrats who manage the trail resources, legislators who fund the recreational areas we love, and the media who like to cover this highly vocal minority.  At worst, it could slow down the process by which trails are suddenly declared off limits to horses.  At best, it could open up access to almost any trail suitable for horses and mules.

  A VERY INTRIGUING IDEA!

(Now why didn't I think of that.)
