At the #IFSCwc in Vail, Janja GARNBRET became the first athlete to clean sweep a #bouldering season. She finished 2019 with a total of 10 IFSC gold medals and became Slovenia's first female #sportclimbing Olympic athlete. #climbtotokyo

"We wanted to do something to change this attitude that girls are less than boys and that it's okay to sell them," she said, adding that the bicycle trek shows "women have power and strength like men." ow.ly/4yC050wEEmU

Mt. Everest was calling to @carolinegleich. She knew the risks, the investment, the preparations it would take, and she still decided to go for it. Hear her talk about how her climb up the tallest peak in the world went from an idea to reality on this week’s episode.
Today, we strike. As outdoor enthusiasts, we understand our deep interconnectedness to the planet. Our snowpack is changing, our ice lines thinning, and our climbing crags are getting rained out. We are stewards of the land, and stewards of the planet.

We must listen to and elevate women’s voices to create resiliency in the climate movement. Thank you @NaomiOreskes, @puppiesonmtsyay and @HilareeNelson for your leadership and for speaking up for the environment. You are my heroes! @ProtectWinters
