Justin Towers

Justin Towers
As the Burrows Trail Restoration Coordinator, Justin (he/him/his) is responsible for planning and implementation of the Burrows Trail Restoration project. Originally from the Southern Adirondacks, Justin first moved to this side of the Lake in 2012 to work for GMC as a backcountry caretaker. After 6 seasons working for the club as both a caretaker and a construction crew member, he left and spent some time working on a large-scale project on Colorado’s Mt. Elbert and, later, some mountain biking trails in Southern Vermont. Beginning this spring, Justin is back at the GMC managing a new project on a very old trail—a full reconstruction of the Burrows Trail on Camels Hump’s West side.
