Brent's Trail is dedicated in loving memory to Brent Olson. He was the area forester for the Loess Hills State Forest. He had a vision of a long-distance hiking trail in Harrison County. Brent wanted people to experience the beauty of the Loess Hills in a unique way. The almost 12 mile long trail connects Harrison County Conservation Board's Murray Hill Scenic Overlook, Gleason-Hubel Wildlife Area, and the Loess Hills State Forest.
