Aubrey Le Blond

    Táto priekopníčka horolezectva sa presadila v dobe, keď bolo pre ženy takmer nepredstaviteľné liezť po horách. Svojou vášňou pre hory a odvážnym prístupom prepísala hranice možného, preskúmala nespočetné množstvo nedotknutých vrcholov a zdokumentovala svoje výpravy prostredníctvom pútavých textov a fotografií. Jej dielo inšpirovalo ďalšie generácie a zanechalo nezmazateľnú stopu v literatúre o horách i v dejinách ženského športu.
