Women of the Wild

Posted by | Jun 2, 2017 | , , |

What is a wild woman? Wild is defined as “living in a state of nature” and “not subject to restraint or regulation.” And a wild woman is what I aspired to be when I set off from Santa Cruz to surf Central America during the summer of 2015, just as eager to break the prescribed boundaries of being a thirty-something woman as I was to immerse myself in the raw and rugged landscape of the Pacif

The cold 57 degree water sprays over the bow as the eight man crew stacks 13 heavy sails on one side for stability. Not long after the stack of sails is secured, it’s time to change sails.

✨Have you picked up our Fall Issue yet? ✨ 🆓 We believe in the healing power of nature, and thanks to our partners, this issue is packed with outdoor inspiration — available for free! 📔 Our cover story explores the rich history of the south face of Yosemite’s Half Dome. This iconic wall has shaped climbing history with dramatic accidents, daring rescues, and legendary climbs by figures like Warren Harding, Galen Rowell, Steve Bosque, Mike Corbett, and John Middendorf. 📸 Cover photo of Tobias Wolf and Oliver Schmidt celebrating with a high five after the first free ascent of Karma on the south face of Half Dome. Photo by Tobias Wolf via time-lapse. 🧗 Also in this issue, Doug Robinson, known as the “Father of Clean Climbing,” returns with part two of his clean climbing manifesto. His revolutionary ideas, first introduced in the 1972 Chouinard catalog, challenge climbers to reflect on their impact on nature. 📜Building on this theme of responsible climbing, we also highlight the Yosemite Climbing Associations Climber’s Credo, a grassroots agreement developed to address the proposed nationwide fixed anchor prohibition in Wilderness areas. This initiative promotes ethical climbing practices and aims to influence future regulations to preserve access. 🌲 Other stories include the Inyo Mountain Wilderness, solo bikepacking in the Lost Sierra, the indigenous-led effort to restore and paddle the Klamath River, climbing Mexico’s volcanoes, and the return of great white sharks along California’s coast. 🏡 Love our content?

We caught up with Allyson Gunsallus to talk about her project Hand Holds — an interview series to help climbers understand the transition to parenting and parenthood. 🧗‍♂️ Though the series uses climbing as a lens, it is meant to be useful for all athletes and people transitioning into their new role as a parent. 🧑‍🧒 Click the link 🔗 in our bio to watch the full interview with @yosguns. 🎬
