All Persons Trails at Eagle Creek Park

  • Summary

  • Emily Storm-Smith sits down to discuss the All Persons Trails on the West Side of Eagle creek park. These feature two ADA loops at the north and south end of the new West Side Hiking Trail complex. As the name “All Persons Trail” suggests, they were built as part of the larger West Side Trail project to ensure that anyone, even folks who require the use of mobility aids can use them. At the time of recording Emily was the President of the Eagle Creek Park Foundation Board of Directors. Emily is a lawyer who lives in Indianapolis and has a passion for accessibility. Her young son requires mobility aids, so this episode is a chance to hear about how her advocacy resulted in accessibility for everyone who visits the West Side Hiking Trails. **Official West Side Hiking Trails Map** Forest Service Guidance on Accessibility (trails on page 35-42) Photos from Emily and Adam’s visit to one of two ADA trails, the South Loop Trail near Bear Overlook: ADA South Loop Trail Sign Adam and Emily at Bear Overlook Adam and Emily at Parking Lot Transition Zone Adam and Emily Walking on ADA South Loop Eagle Creek Nature Notes is brought to you by the Eagle Creek Park Foundation and was made possible by a grant from the Eli Lilly Foundation.
