I got the most wonderful feeling of peace and perspective of life and living. Edna Bradley Picked up this gem of a tale by Edna Bradley one of the members of the 1957 Petticoat Safari via Amazon. A rock to remember. Available on Kindle via Amazon. The story about the first climb is an epic. It's hard to believe a bunch of faceless, bloodless bureaucrats could read this and ban the climb. But ban it they have! Excerpt below. The girls at the summit: Absolutely wonderful!
Our mountains belong to all of us. The Right to Climb them and bask in their views that inspire awe and wonder is as old as the human genome. This long-established cultural tradition is under threat by a small group of bureaucrats determined to impose their way on the rest of the world. It is right to Climb because we have the Right to climb. If you don’t exercise your rights you lose them. Don't let petty nanny state bureaucrats take them away.
