Born in Lake Placid, Lynn is an Adirondack native pursuing the outdoor traditions of her father and grandfather. She has a B.S. in Physical Education & Recreation and a M.S. in Education from St. Lawrence University. Lynn taught Physical Education for 20+ years in the Tupper Lake and Long Lake Central Schools before moving her classroom to the wilderness setting. She prefers to "live simply" and spend her time showing others how to seek a more peaceful existence in the outdoors. Lynn has worked informally with people of all ages in outdoor-related endeavors since 1996 and began Adirondack Connections Guide Service in February 2002. Lynn's passion is foot bound wilderness exploration in areas she has yet to experience. She prefers taking "lesser traveled paths" and opts for more remote areas when she has the option. Her paddling preference is on calm, more secluded waters (small ponds, streams, rivers and through marsh areas), where there is often abundant wildlife, in her Hornbeck ultra-light double paddle solo canoe. She revels in the serenity and beauty the flora, fauna, mountains and waters provide. Lynn has a wealth of experience hiking, backpacking, camping, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, winter camping, paddling and trip leading, throughout the Adirondacks and White Mountains, which she brings to all her wilderness excursions. Lynn's classroom is now the "wilderness." The lessons learned through the experiences she offers have the potential to carry over into generations to come.
