Lauren DeLaunay

Since graduating from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Lauren has been on the never-ending road trip. She's equally at home in the high peaks of the Rockies as Utah's red desert, but she knows that nothing is better than a granite handcrack and therefore currently calls the Search & Rescue team in Yosemite home. When not putting her International Relations degree to use in The New York Times Crossword puzzle, she can be found climbing, skiing, trail running, or binge-listening to NPR in her '97 GMC Safari named Bozarth.
