Meet Ty Houck, the "Boss" of the Swamp Rabbit Trail, in Greenville SC, as we like to call him. Ty has been involved with South Carolina State Parks, SC trails, building mountain bike trails in South Carolina, and the GHS Swamp Rabbit Trail just to name a few of his accomplishments. Ty attended Furman University and returned to the area in the early 2000's and has been a key figure building and expanding the popular 20+ and growing greenway trail we love called the GHS Swamp Rabbit Trail. Ty was also involved with adding more miles of mountain bike trails at Paris Mountain State Park in Greenville SC and we talk about his favorite trail in the park. We learn some fun facts about how those trails were built and much more so watch below to hear more of Ty's story!
