As a member of the Girdwood Trail Committee he was dedicated to constructing and maintaining trails in Girdwood Valley, AK for present and future generations to enjoy as they explore and interact with nature. Besides his love of nature Dwaine enjoyed spending time with his friends whom he valued as family.
