North America’s Most Inspiring Women Climbers

 “This book offers an inspiring look at the world of female climbing, capturing the heart of the sport from a perspective not fully explored before—that of the women climbers themselves. Working with Chris Noble on this project was an absolute pleasure. He helped me to reflect on and articulate why climbing has become my life’s passion. I highly recommend this delightful read.”
