Mountains To Climb
About this episode
Henriette D'angeville was the first woman to climb Mount Blanc in the Alps, despite everyone advising her not to try it.
Decades later, Julia Archibald Holmes (a friend of John Brown's) became the first woman to summit Pike's Peak, a feat that Pike himself never did.
