We want to take a moment to recognize two incredible people who have poured their hearts into making the Biggerstaff Trail something truly special.

A huge THANK YOU to Desi and Ben of D.I.R.T. Solutions for your countless hours of hard work, dedication, vision, and passion. From designing to restructuring the trail, your commitment has transformed Biggerstaff into a place that our community and visitors will enjoy for years to come.

Projects like this don’t happen without people who are willing to give their time, talent, and energy, and your efforts have made a lasting impact on Leslie County. Every twist, turn, climb, and view reflects the care and craftsmanship you’ve invested in this trail.

On behalf of Trails of Leslie County, thank you for believing in this project and helping bring it to life. We are beyond grateful for everything you’ve done, and we can’t wait for everyone to experience the incredible work you’ve created.

Please join us in showing Desi and Ben some well-deserved appreciation! ❤️🥾🚵🌲
