A little over a year ago, just before my birthday, I was seized with the urge to free solo Jah Man on Sister Superior and base jump off it. In 2008, I free soloed the North Face of Castleton and jumped off the top, and it remains one of my favorite adventures of all time. [...]

Dear Steph, Just wanted to drop a quick note to say what a true inspiration you are. In high school I went out every summer to rockclimb in Colorado and loved it. I am also a musician and have chosen to focus on the music for the last ten years but I am ready to [...]

Hi Steph! I`m Jaakko from Finland and really like what you do! That`s so nice to see girls doing something so cool things.. (My girlfriend is also BASE-jumper) Smooth climbing and the cherry on top of the cake you do nice BASE-jumps from beautiful exits… I just watched one of your videos from VIMEO and [...]

On her first birthday, Cajun sent!

I took my new Backcountry.com canopy out for its maiden voyage today! Not only does it have the goat, but it’s magenta on top of it… Mao appears to approve. (phew)

I sent him some posters [...]

Greetings, this is in no way meant for any bad intent! Anybody trapped in a high rise would love another option. If this is a re-hashed subject please disregard. Someone in your field I’m sure has already thought of this, to sell base jumping (alternate escape) chutes or some kind of modified gear to anyone [...]

Steph, Yesterday I stumbled across a post you put on Greg Crouch’s facebook page (he has been a long time friend of mine)… it got me curious. I have been a climber for a long time but had never been on your blog. I was excited to see you pretty much have done what I [...]

Hi Steph, Wow, I have been browsing your website and what a way to live (I found you on Twitter)! One day I will be brave enough to live my life like that but being in London you get stuck behind a desk. I do however love climbing and “wild camping”. My question to you [...]

Steph, I just wanted to drop you a quick note of thanks. We don’t know each other, and I’ll probably never have the privilege of ever actually meeting you. But on behalf of my 6 year old little girl, thanks for showing that girls can do “cool stuff” too. My 6 year old, Haleigh, is [...]
