Thanks Tom. I will try to give you a call later today and visit a bit.

For you other outfitters who are established, remember that lodging doesn't always have to be accessible. What I've found is many places have accessible motels close by for the sleeping arrangements. Another thing to think about is that disability doesn't always mean serious stuff like a wheelchair. Many of the hunters I work with can walk fine, they just can't walk very far. Another example is a friend of mine who had one leg amputated. He still moves faster and further than a lot of the able-bodied people I know. Just struggles with ladders. Doesn't slow him down for many activities.

Just something to think about when you are approached with something like this. Some outfitters run the other way when they hear the word disabled. Some are willing to do what they can to give both themselves and their clients a fun trip. The whole trick is to go into it with both eyes open and communicate a lot before the trip. Everybody simply cannot help everyone else but there are a lot of things that can easily be done to get somebody with a disability in the woods!
