Kay LeClaire was a competitve ballroom dancer and nurse, who at 51 had her first mountain climbing experience when she summited Mt. Rainier with her son Andrew.

Her fascinating story, wrought with tough challenges and incredible triumph, is an inspiration to anyone who has a dream and wants to live it!
