Description

From Melinda Moulton:

Jan Reynolds is a world record setting climber and skier, olympic athlete, and award winning author and photographer. She's known for her ability to capture extraordinary imagery and stories while climbing and skiing in extremely high-risk environments and expeditions.

Jan secured a breakthrough assignment on a high-profile, National Geographic–sponsored climb and ski of Mustagata in Western China, where she set the world high altitude skiing record for women, as well as set the record for the highest descent from a summit with her male partners. She led dozens of exploratory expeditions and completed first ascents around the globe, working with the best adventure athletes in the world - including the gruelling record setting Everest Grand Circle Expedition. Her adventures are chronicled in her book The Glass Summit; One Woman's Epic Journey Breaking Through. She lives in Stowe, Vermont.
