They Climb in Skirts… I Tried to Keep Up | Superskilled with Eva zu Beck | National Geographic

Journey into the freezing Andes mountains of Bolivia with Eva zu Beck, and meet the Climbing Cholitas, a group of Indigenous women on a mission to reclaim their power. One climb at a time, they endure tough routes at extreme altitudes, all while wearing traditional pollera skirts as an act of resistance. Eva grabs an ice pick and crampon to join them on a challenging trek through the Condoriri Glacier with hopes to harness their confidence and overcome her fear of heights.
