Hi, I'm Lindsay.

 

Welcome to the Women's Adventure Club! I'm so happy you found us. I hope this community of women is exactly what you’ve been looking for. 

 

Why did I start the Women's Adventure Club? Here’s my story...

 

Before moving to Pittsburgh, my family lived in Anchorage, Alaska. When we first arrived in Alaska, I was in awe of the wild beauty there, but I didn't know how to be outdoorsy in the winter... and we were about to enter six months of it! I watched in admiration as Alaskans skied, hiked, and fat-biked through deep winter with such enthusiasm.

 

Could I learn to do these things? At first, I told myself I didn't have the skills, gear or confidence. And I was a bit afraid of encountering a black or brown bear, or a protective mother moose out on the trails. That changed when I met a fearless, local woman who taught me how to Nordic ski. It quickly became my favorite way to embrace winter and it opened up the door to so much more. 

​

​Seven years later, I had fully embraced the Alaskan outdoor lifestyle. Time spent in nature became a tonic, the most important contributor to my health and well-being. Those Alaska years taught me the value of stepping outside your comfort zone, leaning into community, and letting nature do its healing work. Adventuring brings such joy, courage, peace, and the feeling of being connected to something bigger than myself. 

 

That experience is what inspired me to start the Women's Adventure Club - a space where women can grow stronger, braver, and more connected through shared outdoor adventures.
