Lynn Hill Reaches Critical Mass
If the 1990’s had a door, then Lynn Hill, one of the first American climbers to embrace the European climbing ethics, definitely kicked it in.
At the start of the decade, no woman had climbed 5.14, and one particular French superstar had said that no woman WOULD EVER climb the grade.
And so Lynn, channeling the energy from the men who had always told her she couldn’t, rose up from an accident that nearly killed her to prove him wrong, and to change the course of women’s climbing forever.
