Outdoor Adventure Athlete & Climbing Pioneer; First Female Patagonia Climbing Ambassador; Author of "High Infatuation" & "Learning to Fly"
Steph Davis Biography
Steph Davis is recognized in the outdoor adventure sports industry for her achievements in climbing, BASE jumping, and wingsuit flying. With a background as a classically trained pianist and a master's degree in literature, Davis left law school to pursue a career in climbing. This decision marked the beginning of a career that expanded the possibilities for women in climbing and adventure sports. Patagonia selected Davis as its first female climbing ambassador, reflecting her growing influence in the field.
Davis is the first woman to free solo a 5.11 grade climb, summit all the peaks of the Fitzroy Range in Patagonia, free climb El Capitan in a day as the second woman, free climb the Salathé Wall on El Capitan in Yosemite, free solo The Diamond on Longs Peak in Colorado, and summit Torre Egger. Her ascent of the Salathé Wall involved extensive preparation and perseverance through challenging conditions, ultimately resulting in a successful free climb of every pitch after 11 days. Davis has also completed first ascents in Patagonia, the Karakorum, the Aksu, and Baffin Island.
Expanding her pursuits beyond climbing, Davis became the first person to complete free solo BASE climbs—free climbing up and parachuting off—of freestanding towers in the Moab desert, and made the first known wingsuit BASE climb in the United States. She is recognized as a leading female free soloist and one of the top wingsuit BASE jumpers globally, uniquely combining free solo climbing with BASE jumping.
Davis has authored two memoirs, "High Infatuation" and "Learning to Fly," and maintains a blog focused on community, health and wellness, simple living, and travel. Her work in adventure literature and public speaking addresses overcoming fear and achieving personal freedom. Men's Journal included Davis among the 25 most adventurous women of the past 25 years, and she received the Pinnacle Award for lifetime achievement from the American Alpine Club.
