#AlpineDivorce has been making headlines, but there’s another version- the “alpine ditch”. Where people with disabilities (or other mobility limitations) are left behind- often occurring during mixed-ability events or outings. Anyone else experience this? #EveryBodyOutside #TrailsForAll #Disability
Huge thanks to @jocomerford.bsky.social & @repciccolo.bsky.social for championing the #TrailsForAll Act (H.915/S.548)!🦽 Your leadership is clearing a path for a more accessible, inclusive outdoors in Massachusetts.
Let’s get this done! #TrailsForAll
As trail stewards and outdoor advocates, we see firsthand how few trails are truly built for everyone.
The #TrailsForAll Act (H.915/S.548) would fund inclusive trail design in MA—and set a model for others. 📣 Ask your rep to support it: p2a.co/cryo2vu
Massachusetts state parks have 4,000+ miles of unpaved trails — but fewer than 0.5% are accessible. I am proud to support the #TrailsForAll Act which ensures that people with disabilities, older adults, and young children can enjoy the health and joy of being outdoors.
#OutdoorsForAll
Smooth surfaces, inclusive wayfinding, and other features of accessible trails will create more opportunities for birders of all abilities to connect with nature. @wgbh.org

Morning truth: Some days it's a mountain summit, other days it's walking around the block. Every step outside is a victory worth celebrating. What's your win today? 🌅 #TrailsForAll #ATrailOfOurOwn
Remember: You belong here.
Not because you're the fastest.
Not because you have the best gear.
Not because you've hiked the most miles.
You belong here because the outdoors is for everyone. Period. 💚
