Last year, Lucy Westlake became the youngest American woman to summit Mount Everest. She previously broke the world record for youngest female to climb to the highest points in all 50 states. She’s also climbed the highest points on four of the seven continents. Now Lucy is preparing to climb the second highest and “most savage” mountain in the world, K2 in Pakistan. We’re revisiting our conversation with Westlake who called City Cast producer Simone Alicea before and after climbing Mount Everest!
These conversations were originally published May 3 and May 19, 2022.
