	Lynn Hill - GreatOutdoors.com
		As Lynn Hill concludes her third decade of rock climbing, she acknowledges, reluctantly, that her impact on the sport is probably second to no other woman.
		And while Lynn Hill continues to climb at a rarefied level, she is also taking on new and completely different challenges: author, web meister, ambassador for Patagonia, rock-climbing teacher, and mother.
		Hill said she is currently at work on her new web site, lynnhillclimbs.com, which is scheduled for a spring launch.

		Hill, who makes a living as a professional climber, hasn't been pushing extreme limits since the Nose climb, but that's a conscious choice.

	Lynn Hill Interview: Professional Climber Series (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Hill started climbing in the '70s, and eventually joined the top ranks of climbers, making her mark as a professional climber first as a rock climbing guide and later as a competition climber.
		It was Lynn Hill's first free ascent of The Nose on Yosemite's El Cap, and her subsequent one-day free climb of the route, that perhaps more than any other single event secured her place in the elite of climbing.
		Despite the fact that Lynn Hill has made an indelible impression on climbing, she seems modest about her achievements, and reluctant to accept the mantle of the most famous woman climber in the world.

		Hill is touted as the greatest free climber in the world meaning she climbs without gear, which could make for scary reading.
		Hill began climbing when she was 14, in 1970, scampering up a rock face while her companions turned away in exhaustion; by 1994, she had done something no other climber had ever done: made a free ascent of El Capitan's hideously challenging Nose.
		Lynn's story is a life adventure, not just a dangling from rocks, but an embrace of people and places, a reflection of her experiences, the rock wall challenges she has met and over come as well as the romances which have blessed and graced her life along the way.

		Hill's masterpiece is the first "free" ascent of the Nose, the classic route to the summit of El Capitan, Yosemite's imposing, prowlike granite face.
		Hill climbed El Cap's 3,000 feet of vertical rock without using gear to aid her ascent, and all in under 23 hours, much of the time in darkness.
		Even Hill admits in this memoir that hers was an achievement possible only "once, maybe twice, in a lifetime." Other climbers have declared it to be the hardest known big wall climb in the world.

		Lynn Hill began climbing at the age of 14.
		Indeed, Lynn’s free ascent of the Nose in 1993, and her one day free ascent in 1994, remain unrepeated, by man or woman, and it has been suggested by some that the two cruxes of the route may well clock in at 5.14.
		Lynn now lives in Boulder, Colorado, where she has recently become a mother, and is balancing her time between her family and traveling the world to climb, ski, and run.

		Hill started climbing in 1975, when she was a 14-year-old gymnast in Orange County, California.
		Although Hill could rest at belay stations and had a climbing partner to catch her when she fell, she led every pitch and managed to climb sections that previously had been ascended only with "aid"--that is, by hanging and climbing on equipment placed in the rock.
		A resident of southern France, Hill says she loves the European lifestyle, built as it is around a culture of alpinism, good food, and good friends.
