$Woman\'s Place is On Top T-Shirt$

Ladies, it’s time to schedule a trip to the American Mountaineering Museum in Golden, CO. May is women’s month there, and the museum is celebrating great women mountaineers with a buy one-get one museum and event admission for women. Also, Moms get in free on Mother’s Day.

The museum is featuring a special deal on the T-shirt that commemorated the 1978 all-women expedition team on Annapurna. “A Woman’s Place is On Top” was the theme for the expedition led by Arlene Blum. The group was the first all-woman team to summit. Blum wrote about her life and that historic summit in her 2005 memoir “Breaking Trail: A Climbing Life.”
