What are the benefits of having more wheelchair-accessible trails? They allow people with mobility challenges to have a chance to connect with the wonders of Maine's outdoors and each other.
In this Borealis story, we take to the trails with Enock Glidden, an adventurer, blogger and accessibility advocate, as he leads a group of hikers with Spina Bifida around the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge: An annual event that holds special meaning for Glidden.
Join these hikers as they "create sparks" and, like Enoch, ask "How can I" instead of "Can I?"
