His approach has always been dedicated to the pursuit of building social and ecological resilience. With his background as a planner in mountain towns, a landscape architect, and a national park ranger, Josh’s current work is about sustaining how we might live, work, and play within the Y2Y corridor, the most intact mountain ecosystem on the planet.
