  • Benefits of Greenways and Trails (Pdf)
    THE CAROLINA THREAD TRAIL (The Thread) is a network of greenways and conserved corridors that links 15 counties in North and South Carolina and is a collaborative project of unprecedented scale. The Thread connects our region and places of interest, and conserves our most significant natural areas. Benefits of Greenways and Trails Greenways and multi-use trails – like the Carolina Thread Trail – have had an enormous impact on the economic, physical and social well-being of communities across America. Despite tremendous examples and success stories across the country, a lack of information on the impact a trail may have on its specific community can often make it difficult to encourage governments, businesses, stakeholders or residents to financially support the construction of new trails and greenways. Quantifying the wide diversity of benefits trails have after establishment may be an even more challenging task due to the broad and multi-faceted manner in which communities can be positively affected. This compilation of facts and opinions is meant to synthesize much of the dispersed information available on greenways and trails— with particular focus in the Carolinas. Contents I. Economic Impact For more a. Business and Development information i. Development contact ii. Bike-Related iii. Trail Use and Spending (704) 342-3330 b. Real Estate c. Tourism or visit online at II.

Active recreation is defined as bicycling, trail activities, paddling, snow sports, camping, fishing, hunting, and wildlife viewing.

  • Paul Mitsdarfer by Bruce Barron
    The Official Publication of the Montour Trail Council MONTOUR TRAIL-LETTER Celebrating 30 Years Volume 30 Issue 2 March-April 2019 The Originals: Paul Mitsdarfer by Bruce Barron The creation of oral history is typically a race against time, an effort to capture the invaluable recollections of heroes while they are still with us. The 13 Montour Trail originals being featured in this series—the 12 members of the board established in late 1989 plus legal counsel Dick Wilson—are all still alive, but we regret not getting to Paul Mitsdarfer sooner. Paul suffered cardiac arrest in October and is currently living at a rehabilitation center, wide-eyed and full of enthusiasm but capable of only limited verbal communication. Happily, Paul’s faithful wife, Dottie, has helped us to piece together the details so that we can appropriately honor his contributions to the Montour Trail. Paul and Dottie rented a townhouse on Scott Lane in Peters Township, very close to where the Montour Railroad passed under Brush Run Road, in the early 1980s. Paul recalled seeing trains occasionally during the last year before the rail line was abandoned. The end of train travel on the Montour gave Paul—who completed 11 marathons at places like Gettysburg, Wheeling, and Ottawa before the Pittsburgh Marathon came into existence, and who celebrated his 40th birthday with a 40-mile run—a great workout facility. Dottie, who joined Paul for some of his shorter runs, remembered having to watch out for kids zooming along recklessly on motorbikes as they jogged beside the railroad tracks.
