Women of the 80’s: Part 2
Women of 1980s climbing part one.
In Part 2 of our series on women climbers of the 1980s, we focus on the middle of the decade, when difficulty soared. We take a closer look at the 1984 International Ladies Meet hosted by The Pinnacle Club in North Wales and how it connects to the women who were at the forefront of sport climbing a year later, and how standards began to skyrocket. We wrap up in Australia where Nyrie Dodd is the first to finish an often tried project.
In this episode we discuss Jill Lawrence, Gill Price, Catherine Destivelle, Christine Gambert, Lynn Hill, Isabelle Pattisiere, Luisa Iovane and more.
