94-year-old Arkansas woman still climbing the mountains she hiked as a kid. Here's her secret.
Theresa Guenther, a local historian, has climbed since age 10 and still reaches the summit with neighbor Christophe Block.
- On her 94th birthday, Theresa Guenther hiked Pinnacle Mountain in Arkansas with neighbor Christophe Block, continuing a tradition she began at age 10 and has never abandoned.
- For 12 years, Block has been her hiking partner, becoming family after first joining her on a trek to the top for her 89th birthday five years ago.
- "Don't climb just to climb," Guenther said, urging hikers to appreciate the trees and plants while sharing historical tales of steamboats bringing picnickers to the river's natural steps.
- Reaching the summit, Block said, "No one else is hiking this thing on their 94th birthday," as they savored the view and the achievement together.
- Guenther's story inspires others to realize their capabilities and live fully, Block said, encouraging people to avoid making excuses for themselves and embrace active pursuits.
