Each week, Outside Adventure Expo will spotlight a speaker featured as part of the upcoming education series taking place June 25-27, 2021 at Utah State Fairpark. This week, we are featuring avid climber, trail runner and full-time overland traveler, Linda Williamson.
Having worked as both a wilderness ranger and wildlife biologist, Linda is often happiest exploring the outdoors, whether that is scaling rock faces or setting personal records on alpine trails. Having personally discovered the healing power of proper nutrition, Linda now works as a functional nutritionist serving the outdoor community through her virtual practice, The Nourishing Nomad.

For the Outside Adventure Expo, Linda will utilize her love and knowledge of the nutritional needs and desires of backcountry adventurers to teach her class drool-worthy, delicious, nutrient-dense recipes for meals that are made to go anywhere and help you be the best athlete, outdoor explorer and human you can be. Being intimately familiar with the needs of climbers, desert runners, dirt bikers, and alpine hikers, Linda will focus on packability, ease of preparation, longevity, and versatility in the meals and snack recipes she shares.
Linda is currently overlanding from one epic outdoor paradise to another in the Southwest. To see what she’s up to between now and the Outside Adventure Expo, follow her @thenourishingnomad.nutrition.
