Description
Every summer, Kris emcees the International Climbers Festival here in Lander, Wyoming. One of his favorite parts of doing the event is being able to introduce the keynote speakers. It was quite a lineup this year, with big names like Chris Kalous and Brittany Goris. But it was one of the opening speakers who ended up stealing the show: Indian climber and force of nature, Prerna Dangi.
Prerna’s time in Lander was just one of many stops she’s making this year on a big climbing trip throughout the US. With plenty of hours logged in the alpine, on a rope, and over crash pads, she’s got experience and goals on ice, rock, and beyond. But her biggest goal of all — and the one she’s certainly dedicating the most to — is to continue building an empowered community of female climbers in India.
DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE:
How Prerna got her start in climbing.
The climbing scene in India and how it differs from here in the US.
The ongoing development of climbing in India.
How organizations like CLAW (Climb Like a Woman) are empowering women in India to climb.
How Prerna is finding her power — as a climber, a role model, and a community leader.
