The Naked Edge is a 1,000 ft. monolith whose vertical slopes have defeated all but the most spirited climbers.  For Beth Bennet and Lynn Hill it's a special challenge for no women's free-climbing team has ever reached the top.  Bennet and Hill meet the challenge in a dramatic, suspenseful climb.  Their spectacular success illustrates all the major principles of teamwork, goal setting and the pursuit of excellence.

 

Winner of the ITALIAN ALPINE PRIZE, Trento
