Every year, millions hike the trails through our National Parks, but what about those who can’t?
Ryan Grassley and his best friend Sam Durst – who has cerebral palsy – tested an all-terrain wheelchair dubbed “Extreme Motus” in four national parks in Utah for over 7 years before finally getting it into Zion National Park for free public use. Other parks will soon follow suit, allowing even those with disabilities, mobility challenges, or injuries to experience what our amazing parks have to offer.
“We know that it means a lot to the people who visit the parks,” Grassley said. It just took a couple of best friends to figure out how to make it happen.
