The Promise of Climbing: Sabrina Chapman She Explores

    • Wilderness

Sabrina Chapman's climbing story helps redefine what it means to be an elite climber. That said, you don’t need to be a climber for it to resonate with you. Sabrina is wildly thoughtful, a woman who chooses her words as carefully as she places her hands and feet on a rock wall. Her thoughts on working through fear, finding Black role models, contextualizing achievements, and the vulnerability of accepting your story echo through every activity we do outside.

Sabrina's the subject of Titan Project, a new film by Melanin Base Camp. As one of a handful of Black women climbing "elite" routes worldwide, she hopes to inspire more girls from the BIPOC community to feel welcome in the climbing world.
