A Year Later
In three days, friendships formed, the kind that withstand time and miles. Four women from four states reunited for a summer weekend in Kentucky's Red River Gorge. Others met up, climbed together, or stayed in touch through e-mail and blogs. Looking back, we all remember the same thing. Even more than the big-sky horizons and the feel of the rock beneath our fingers, we remember the spirit of fun and togetherness that happens when women lift each other up.

Climb With Lynn
Lynn Hill runs private climbing clinics around the world, including at Hueco Tanks. Beginners are welcome, though previous time spent climbing outdoors or in a climbing gym will amplify the experience. Classes are limited to 10 people for individualized instruction and need to be booked well in advance. Find out more at www.lynnhillclimbs.com.

"Land of Rock and Sky" is from the November 2007 issue of Texas Living: People and Places, a special section in Southern Living for our subscribers who live in Texas.
