Show Notes
Kimber Cross, a kindergarten teacher from Tacoma, made history on March 16, 2026, by becoming the first female disabled climber to conquer the expert four-pitch three hundred foot ice climb at Bridal Veil Falls in Colorado. Despite being born with a stump on her right hand, Cross used custom prosthetic ice axes, crampons, and ice screws to climb the water ice level six route. She has summited Mount Rainier six times and is now inspiring young people with disabilities, proving that the impossible is routine.
