Towpath Trail River Walk ~

According to Barbara Martindale there are two reasons why "Towpath Trail River Walk" should be the name of the Grand Valley Trail East and West of Caledonia.  First, in the days of The Grand River Navigation Company (1830s to 1860s), mules and horses towed the scows and river boats carrying important products including lumber.  Secondly, a committee set up in the seventies calling themselves The Towpath Trail Committee was successful in laying the ground work for what was eventually to become the Caledonia dam with extensive shoreline work including a dyke.
