Wheelable Wilderness will be a fully accessible campground—built so no one has to worry about barriers.
And it goes beyond flat paths and ramped cabins—Kent plans to provide adaptive gear to help people explore even further.
The project is still in development—but Kent says the demand is out there, and so is the determination.
