Lynn Goya has moved from coast to coast as a travel writer. She has shared her findings through various media, from her Emmy-nominated work on the PBS television show Outdoor Nevada to her national print work for USA Today, Audubon, Outside Family, and others; her Las Vegas blog www.planeteyetraveler.com; and her book, Fun with the Family Las Vegas (Globe Pequot Press). She revels in exploring San Diego’s trails with her son, Alexander Goya, a lifelong backpacker, rock climber, and adventurer.

Alexander Goya has been sharing his outdoor experiences with the public since he was in elementary school helping his mom as a regular on the Family Adventures segments of the PBS television show Outdoor Nevada. As a teen he has hiked Nevada’s remote Ruby Crest Trail; the Grand Canyon rim to rim; from Juneau to Atlan, Canada; through numerous back trails of Hawaii; and throughout the rugged terrain of Zion National Park.
