Climbing
Rasa began climbing in 1998. She wasn't a technical climber but had gotten into high altitude moutaineering. During her climbing years there was plenty of activity. With long time friends Tom Demerly and Bob Reedy, she went on trips to James Peak, Mount Elbert, Mount Rainier, Mount Kilimanjaro, and Cerro Aconcagua.
