Black Women 14er Finishers?

Post by DezOutside »

Does anybody know of any recorded Black women who have completed all of the 14ers? :-k
I’ve tried to find information on the subject but can’t find anything!
I tried looking at the list on CMC’s website but that only tells the first and last names of the finishers - Nothing about race, ethnicity, etc!

im sure there have been, one of the great things about mountaineering is that the mountains dont care about your race, gender, class, etc. in that sense i think its more valuable that race and gender are not recorded

I would certainly find this interesting and hope you find the history on this topic.

It wouldn’t surprise me if there has been a black female finisher because there are thousands of finishers now. But it wouldn’t surprise if there hasn’t been either. On a sunny July day on Bierstadt you will see a fair amount of diversity but that changes the farther you get into the boonies. You could call CMC and ask them. Even if it’s not indicated on their website the staff might have such knowledge. Best of luck.

My wife like 15 years ago. We’ve since moved on to 13ers but since having kids that goal is moving at a much slower clip!

I don't know Angry Rose's exact racial make-up, but she has posted on here herself that she is a person of color.
