SOUTHERN COLORADO â A local organization is making outdoor adventures possible for people with limited mobility or those who are unable to walk on their own. Since 2018, The Lockwood Foundation has been taking riders on trails and up mountains, with help from volunteers in the community. Our riders are experiencing adventure that was either impossible for them their entire life, or it was taken away from them, said Jeffrey Lockwood, the organization s founder.
More than four years ago, Lockwood asked himself what a 14-er would look like for someone in a wheel chair. He noticed there were no programs like it in place, and he wanted to create his own.
