Reception

Janey Wong of the Portland Mercury wrote, “The documentary triumphantly challenges the stereotypes and archetypes of mountaineers and adventurers, seeking to carve out a safe space for people of all genders and sexualities... Crisply shot, the film is a love letter to Oregonians and alpine enthusiasts... Who's on Top? is a feel-good watch for anyone needing a little inspiration to get into gear in order to reach their own summit, whatever it may be.”^[5]
