Sarah Lynne Nelson

Based in Boulder, Colorado, Sarah is a Senior Editor at Switchback Travel and former Hipcamp Experience Lead. Feeling limited by the lack of outdoor opportunities in the Midwest, she headed west to the mountains after graduating with a journalism degree from Northwestern in 2016. Sarah immediately immersed herself in sports like rock climbing, mountaineering, and skiing, and now volunteers at a local mountain club to help others do the same. Her ideal—and frequent—remote workspaces include expansive views of the Rockies and hiking breaks with her dog, Sam.
