Nina Williams in Reel Rock 14 on Highball V10

The top climber recently joined The North Face team

Nina Williams, who recently joined The North Face’s American climbing team, will be featured in this year’s Reel Rock 14. A former competition climber turned accomplished highball boulderer, sport and trad climber, Williams’s climbing resume includes Father Time 5.13b in Yosemite, to several Bishop highballs—including her recent first female ascent of Too Big to Flail V10.
