About Us



Great Lakes Trailbuilders LLC was started in 2008 to bring a low impact and environmentally friendly approach to trailbuilding and design to the midwest.  Willie started working on trails 13 years ago with the Wisconsin DNR and over the years he has worked from coast to coast building trails and teaching the different methods and styles to volunteer groups, conservation corps and state agencies. 








Willie currently lives in Trempealeau, WI on the Mississippi River (the photo on the right). When not on the trail he spends his time as the board chair of WisCorps (a Wisconsin based conservation corps for youth and young adults) and volunteering with local community groups.
