History: The trails system in this 95 acre Reserve was developed in the mid-20th century by Henry Browne Wallace, son of former Secretary of Agriculture and Vice President, Henry Agard Wallace. H.B., as he was known, carried on his family’s tradition of philanthropy, scientific research, and community service. He shared these trails with the residents of Green Mountain Falls and Chipita Park.
