Lindsay (Yost) Turner

Instructor and Annual Giving Director

Lindsay (Yost) Turner

Lindsay first came to NOLS as a participant on a Rocky Mountain Instructor Course in 2008. From here on, she has found herself most at home camping and traveling on snow. Lindsay's full-time commitment to working NOLS expeditions from 2008- 2012, provided her the opportunities to explore a wide variety of wilderness classrooms around the world. From its inception in 2011, Lindsay was involved with the growth and development of NOLS Northeast until 2018.

After a few years away working for a local community foundation - Adirondack Foundation, Lindsay has returned to NOLS as the Annual Giving Director. Lindsay grew up spending summers on Lake Placid, which instilled a love for the Adirondacks deep within her soul and this passion she shares with others. Lindsay lives and works in Saranac Lake, NY with her husband Ryan, their son Jack and daughter Olivia.
