National Trails and Outdoor Access Advocacy

The Brent Oliver 541 Foundation has expanded its mission to include national trails and outdoor access advocacy. As part of this effort, the foundation is evaluating a pilot project at Jubilee Lake in northeastern Oregon. The proposed pilot focuses on refurbishing the existing trail around the lake to improve accessibility for elderly individuals, people with mobility challenges, and the general public. The foundation is currently in discussion with local sponsors and advocates to help fund the project and move it forward. The U.S. Forest Service has agreed to allow testing related to this effort after Labor Day 2026. The foundation is optimistic about the potential for a strong, long term partnership focused on getting people where they need to be, outdoors, safely, and enjoying life.
