Wednesday, April 4, 2007
7 p.m.
Seattle Patagonia Store, 2100 First Ave, Seattle

Steph Davis is one of the most accomplished female climbers in the world, having made first ascents in Pakistan, Patagonia, Baffin Island, and Kyrgystan. She was also the first woman to free climb the huge Salathe wall on El Capitan in Yosemite and the first woman to summit Torre Egger in Patagonia. She has been featured in Outside, Men's Journal, W Magazine, and Sports Illustrated, as well as contributing her own writing to Climbing and Rock & Ice.

On April 4, Davis will present a slide show of her past climbing exploits and sign copies of her new book, High Infatuation, published by our very own Mountaineers Books. Davis writes on universal themes of life, love, friendship, and personal empowerment, as expressed through a career of climbing.

This free event is hosted by the Seattle Patagonia store. The slide show will be followed by a Q & A session. For more information, call Patagonia at (206) 622-9700.
