Ed Page devoted his retirement years to nurturing and developing the hiking trails along Blackwater Creek in Lynchburg, VA.
In a 1995 interview, he said that his motivation was to keep commercial and industrial development away from the trails and to protect them for future generations to enjoy.
He helped organize volunteers for trail maintenance and spent so much time improving the area that he was affectionately called "The Mayor of Blackwater Creek."
The Blackwater Creek Natural Area was dedicated in May 1979, and in 1999 the Langhorne Road entrance to the Blackwater Creek Bikeway was named the Ed Page Entrance.
