This woman recently climbed to the top of the Galena Summit in Idaho. Actually she stood next to the road sign that says, "Galena Summit." This woman's name is "Ruth" and she accomplished this task wearing only the clothes that you see her pictured in. In fact...this photo was taken at the "Summit."That's right. No crampons, no water bottle, no backpack, no ice pick, no muffler. Just her against the elements while happily humming the "Gumby" theme song.
Asked if she really climbed to the "Summit" in pink garden shoes, "Yup!" was her reply.
You might ask..."What about, Everest, McKinley or Rainier."
Tinkertoys.
Galena Summit is 9 times higher than all of them. And this woman made it to the top...in those shoes.
This is the woman's dog. "Arrow."
This is the woman's youngest daughter. "Penny."
