Bio:

Lyra's career has ranged from guiding rock climbs in Yosemite, to leading expeditions to the summits of Denali and Mount Elbrus, and ice climbing on the ice towers of Mt. Erebus, Antarctica to facilitate geology research.

Lyra is an IFMGA Mountain Guide, which means she has been certified in all three guiding disciplines of Rock, Alpine, and Ski Mountaineering by the American Mountain Guides Association (AMGA). She is also an Instructor Trainer and Pro Trainer for AIARE, as well as an Instructor Trainer for the AMGA.

She also trains mountain athletes as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through her company MOVEmentum.

While the mountains provide the backdrop for her career--and some of her favorite activities--her true passion is sharing the tools that help people access wild places with respect for themselves, their teams, and the environment. She aims to help others calibrate their experiences to their own personal risk appetite, fitness, and sense of adventure.
