Hanging by her fingertips, feet splayed on slick stone, Lynn Hill reached high to feel the small holds above her head. Her calves were tight. Forearms arched. A rope trailed from her harness, arcing out over thousands of feet of air below.

Thus starts my piece on “10 Best Rock Climbs in the U.S.,” which was written originally for ForbesTraveler.com and picked up today by MSNBC.

For this story, I interviewed 11 top climbers, including the likes of Lynn Hill, Jack Tackle, Will Gadd, Timmy O’Neill, and Michael Kennedy. These guys (and gals) are legends in their sport. (See the full “Expert’s Panel” list below.)
