Dale’s vision is to connect the parks and cities in the county with a series of trails making it a hike and bike tourism destination.
Dale has built trails throughout the United States. Dale builds trails everywhere he goes following Emerson’s guidance “Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path, and leave a trail.
