Elizabeth Hawkins-Whitshed was a rock star. She was a pioneer in womens' mountaineering.
"There is no manlier sport in the world than mountaineering. It is true that all the sports Englishmen take part in are manly, but mountaineering is different from others, because it is sport purely for the sake of sport."
