Elizabeth Rose

Elizabeth "Liz" Rose is the youngest Canadian to climb the Seven Summits, the highest mountain on each continent, completing the feat in under three years and becoming one of the few women in history to do so. Raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, she earned a communications degree from the University of Denver and studied broadcast journalism at the New York Film Academy. Her memoir, Written in the Snow: My Journey to the Seven Summits, recounts adventures that began with a father-daughter climb of Kilimanjaro and led to an eleven-day blizzard on Denali, the frigid cold of Antarctica, and the summit of Mount Everest.
