The Vertical Humor of Tami Knight

Since she first offered to waltz around on stilts in a purple leotard at the 2002 Summer Outdoor Retailer, brandishing Issue 0 of Alpinist, author and illustrator Tami Knight has been a friend of the magazine. Over the years, her contributions have included such cartoon classics as The Alpine Oracle ("Before ya leave on yer next climbin trip…") and The Climbing-Lit Editor's Nightmare ("Hey Writers! Use these moldy phrases in yer manuscripts & win me a cup of burnt coffee"), in addition to more serious fare (the Squamish Mountain Profile, spanning decades of climbing lore in British Columbia). Now, in conversation with Alpinist associate editor Paula Wright, the irrepressible Tami Knight goes beyond the page as she shares stories from her early climbing days and her funniest untold tales yet.
