A collection of vivid, intimate essays and prose poetry on the universal
\nthemes of life, love, friendship, personal empowerment, and more, told through
\na career in climbing <\/p>\n
Throughout her life, Steph Davis has chosen to take risks, to trust her
\nimpulses, to make decisions based on what feels right inside–and never look
\nback. Studying to be a concert pianist, she quit music the day she was
\nintroduced to rock climbing. Later, she abandoned the respectability of
\nuniversity life and pursuit of a law degree to become a ‚dirtbag climber‘,
\nliving out of her grandmother’s hand-me-down Oldsmobile sedan with Fletcher, a
\nheeler mix dog. Today, through courage and perseverance, Davis is a high-
\nprofile athlete sponsored by Mammut, Clif Bar, Five Ten and Cascade Designs. <\/p>\n
In High Infatuation, Davis writes on the universal themes of life, love,
\nfriendship, personal empowerment, and more, told through a career in climbing.
\nWe wait with her in the tent through weeks of rain, wind, snow, and sleet,
\nhoping for the weather to improve in the mountains of Patagonia, then race
\nwith her up a towering rock wall of Yosemite’s El Capitan in a single day. We
\nfeel gratitude toward a female climbing partner who cheers her on through an
\nepic ascent and heartache when her relationship with the man she marries,
\nclimber Dean Potter, is tested by her need for constant movement and career
\nchallenge. More than adventure stories, these pieces reveal Davis‘ soul. They
\ndraw us into her struggles with safety, independence, ambition, and
\ncompassion. By following the journey of this remarkable woman, we learn what
\nit means to live a truly adventurous life. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
