Nicky Dyal
Daughter of the Gunks to photographed climber of the world

Slide show - evening of Saturday May 30th
Mohonk Preserve Vistor's Center

Nicky Dyal, a true daughter of the Gunks, found fear and passion on the route Jackie, belayed by her dad, when she was only twelve years old. Today she travels the world seeking climbs with a similar spirit in far flung places like Greece and Sardinia. Her image can be seen in beautiful photographs, taken by climbing photographer Jim Thornburg, in numerous climbing magazines, catalogs and calendars (including the cover of the 2008 Women of Climbing Calendar - http://www.sharpendbooks.com/cal.php?y=2008 ).

Join Nicky for an evening of spectacular photography and stories as well as a full dose of Nicky's wholesome and contagious love for our sport.

Admission fee will be donated to the GCC. Door prizes will be raffled off as well. Updates from the GCC and Q&A will proceed the show. Stay tuned for updates on admission cost and exact starting time.

We hope to see you there!
