Experience

Sinuosity was founded by Brooke Scatchard in 2010 in order to design and build progressive and professional trail projects.  Brooke grew up racing mountain bikes in Vermont and has been designing and building trails since 1998. He volunteered extensively with the Fellowship of the Wheel mountain bike club since its inception in 2001, serving as the Fellowship’s Trail Director from 2008 to 2010.  A degree in Geography from the University of Vermont solidified his appreciation for integration of trails into the landscape and enables the application of advanced knowledge and technology to our trail and map projects.

His many years of experience in planning, building, and riding trails of all types provide a wealth of knowledge regarding all aspects of trail development and maintenance.  Brooke’s depth of experiences enable Sinuosity to provide trail assessments, sustainable trail design, conceptual and master planning, management of volunteer trail groups, professional trail construction, GIS map creation, and maintenance plan development.

Sinuosity was accepted into the Professional Trail Builders Association (PTBA) in 2013.

Mariah Keagy joined Sinuosity in 2013 to assist with Trail Design and Planning.  Mariah began her 26 years of involvement in trail construction and reconstruction in the Green Mountains of Vermont in 1996.  She has extensive knowledge of multi-use trail design and management and diverse experience in natural resources, specializing in the New England landscape.  Before returning to Vermont in 2010, Mariah worked throughout the U.S. learning about multi-use trails (hike, bike, motorized, pack and saddle, ski, and water) from the Everglades in Florida to the Chugach in Alaska. 

She returned to New England as the Trails Supervisor for the Appalachian Mountain Club, where she managed the White Mountain trails and developed a contract crew, designing and building trails throughout New England.  She has a M.S. in Environmental Studies from Antioch New England and currently serves as a Regional Representative on the Vermont Trails and Greenways Council, is a member of the Green Mountain Club’s Trail Management Committee, and is an adjunct instructor of “Tools and Their Applications” at Sterling College.
