Backpacking/Adaptive Backpacking

About

Adaptive hiking is the enjoyment of trails by people with disabilities through improvising techniques.  Techniques include personal assistance and/or adaptive equipment such as manual wheelchairs, powerchairs, handcycles, rollators, walkers, canes, crutches, or white canes–whatever works best for us individually to enjoy being outdoors on a trail.  That’s what Trail Access Project is all about.
