Vikki Weldon

​

Hi everyone! My name is Vikki, and I am a rock climber and registered nurse based in Squamish, B.C. I started climbing as a youngster at the age of 9 along with my three other siblings in Calgary, A.B. I have competed internationally and travelled to many beautiful parts of the world for climbing. I started nursing about 8 years ago, and currently specialize in emergency room nursing. For me, climbing and nursing go well together. I can work hard and then have my days off to play. When I’m not donning scrubs or rock shoes, I love a good trail run with my dog, Tundra, or a nice sunny spot to curl up with a book.
