ABSTRACT OF THESIS AN ANALYSIS OF KENTUCKY EQUESTRIAN TRAIL RIDERS: DETERMINING RIDER BEHAVIORS AND VALUING SITE AMENITIES THAT CONTRIBUTE TO REPEAT VISITS The purpose of this travel cost study is to determine how rider behaviors and site characteristics influence repeat visits for equestrian trail riding in Kentucky. Primary data was collected via a survey developed and administered to trail riders in person and online. The average surveyed trail rider tends to be female, about 46 years old, with some higher education, and an annual household income of $65,000. She makes 11 trips to a specified site per year, 8 of which are daytrips, usually in the fall, and traveling 132 miles round trip. From other information gathered, an index of trail characteristics was developed to identify positive attributes of trails.

    FOTT a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation THE CUMBERLAND TRAILHEAD The voice of the Friends of the Trails Spring 2021 Cumberland County, TN Fairfield Glade Expansion Means Trail Reroutes Submitted by Jerry Brown The new development on Chestnut Ridge in Fairfield North required a reroute of the Canyon Trail. Because of advance notice, that reroute was accomplished by the FG Trails Committee and volunteer trail workers well before the bulldozers destroyed the old trail. Now, Phase 2 of the new housing development is in the planning stages, which will again require a preemptive effort to keep trails open once the construction begins. The new development will be all around the water tower. It will necessitate the reroute of a portion of the Good Samaritan Trail, the Rotherham Trail, and the Canyon Trail. The junction where these three trails currently meet will be lost and the plan is to reroute the trails so that the new intersection will be at Yoga Rock. Other casualties of the new development will be the water tower parking, the portion of the Yellow Loop along the road to the water tower, and the trail from the water tower down to the current junction. The plan is to reroute the Yellow Loop alongside Good Samaritan property just west of the back entrance road to Good Samaritan and connect to the Good Samaritan Trail south of the new development. The loss of the water tower parking will be resolved by expanding the Catoosa North parking area. The parking area and trail access hikers now use at the water tower in Fairfield North will no longer be available once The reroutes have already been scouted and flagged and construction of Phase 2 of the new housing development begins.
