A Question of Risk: Hazel Findlay

For episode 5 of our series of conversations on risk with some of the world's best climbers and skiers, we sat down with British climber and BD athlete Hazel Findlay.



British climber and BD athlete Hazel Findlay has made a name for herself by being one of the few women in the world to be pushing the standards of trad climbing, with a slew of difficult, bold, and often high-consequence routes under her belt. We sat down with Hazel to talk about how she assesses and deals with risk when choosing and climbing a certain route.
