Explores, 40 first-person tales from women inspired by their
adventures. Highlights include a musical duo who play sunrise
summit concerts (past audiences: Mount Pilchuck in Washington and
the Monte Cristo Range in Utah); Sarah Attar, one of Saudi Arabia's
first female Olympic athletes, who runs the backcountry trails of
the Eastern Sierra; and Marine Malvar de Jesus, who swapped a
career as a lawyer for the life of a mountain nomad.”
