If you are a business, you may think you are fully accessible. The ADA is complicated! But that’s where BluePath can help. A business can go in and see their Quick Look Survey and easily know what improvements should be made.
For Grey Cliff Mill, some of the fixes are super easy and cheap. This stop is between Bozeman and Billings, Montana.
You can tour their green house and demonstration gardens. Book a horseback ride and chuckwagon dinner. You can stay in their unique lodgings which may or may not be accessible. Drop us a note! We would love to know.
They have a real water operated mill, a cheese cave, Wool Works for fiber enthusiasts, leather works, kids area, along with their restaurant, petting zoo, and other entertainments.
The setting is stunning makes it worth the stop! A cliff side hike is available but is not accessible.
A quick look at their survey shows that if they bevel their thresholds, it would be way easier to get inside the restaurant and coffee shop. And they can see they need to add a van-accessible parking sign to make sure there is room for people to deploy a lift. Proper maintenance can make sure the accessible ramp doesn’t have a lip from gravel pulling away at the bottom.
Those are all quick and easy fixes. Tougher is the access to the cheese cave which currently is down a flight of steps.
A BluePath Quick Look Survey can show a business things they can do to be even more accessible!
