My younger brother and now my dad have one of these chairs. That are great and customer service for has always been amazing. My brother before he passed and my dad with our family friend David Blanton. Many years ago.

Most of the trails I hike I don't think those would work well. I hike some rough places. Places where it would be dangerous to try to use that. But there are a number of places they would work. Curious how they would try to mitigate those types of problems. Guess you could do signage like the smokies does and limit certain activities on certain trails. But they won't spend that kind of money.
