Since her initiation into climbing in 1999, Lindsay has traveled to world-class climbing destinations and guides clients of all abilities on rock, ice, and alpine climbs. Lindsay began her career coaching youth competitive climbing teams and managing climbing gyms. Through this experience, Lindsay naturally transitioned to guiding and works closely with her clients to develop their skills. What sets Lindsay apart is her patience and demeanor when it comes to introducing clients to various types of terrain. Guiding venues have included the Rockies, Tetons, Sierra, Pacific Northwest, Alaska, the North and Southeast US, Argentina, Mexico, and Iceland. She has first ascents in Iceland, India and SE Asia. While Lindsay loves rock climbing, she excels as a technician on ice. To quote Kristoff from Frozen, Lindsay agrees, “Ice is my life.” From the ice meccas of the Northeast, the San Juan’s in Colorado, the rich abundance of alpine ice in Montana and Wyoming; to the stunning fjords of Iceland, she brings her clients to their peak level of performance. When Lindsay isn’t climbing, you can catch her playing guitar and singing at local cafes.
