AlFLancaster Farming, Saturday, October 14, 2000 his vvc^-^^-7 New Heights for Women’s Suffrage Annie Smith Peck, bom on October 19 a century and a half ago (1850), first made a name for herself when she climbed the Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps in 1895. In 1908, she was the first mountain climber, man or woman, to ascend the 21,812-foot Mount Huascaran in Peru. At age 61, she again ventured to Peru to climb the 21,250-foot Mount Coropuna, where she placed jjPy~ a “Votes for Women” ban- } ner at the peak. That year also saw the publication of her book, Search for the Apex of the World: High Mountain Climbing in Peru and Bolivia, Including the Conquest of Mount Huascaran.
