On August 27, 1923, Eleanor Davis, the Director of Physical Education for Women at Colorado College, did something no woman before her had ever done: she stood atop the Grand Teton.
One hundred years later, The Teton Climbers’ Coalition is marking Davis’ accomplishment with a year-long celebration of women in the mountains. The centennial kicked off on Friday, January 13, with a panel discussion entitled Moving Mountains that explores the past, present and future of female Teton pioneers.
The panel, which was held from 5-6 p.m. at the Jackson Hole Playhouse, featured four women from the community:
First Female Exum Mountain Guide
Youngest Woman to Ski Grand Teton
Former Exum Guide
Professional Skier and Star of Film “FUEL”
