Pete Lardy

Pete climbs and guides worldwide and currently resides Colorado Springs with his lovely wife, Crystal. For Pete climbing is many things. He strives for the technical, physical, and mental challenges that comes with mountain climbing but also sees the mountains as his escape from the hustle of the city. Alpine rock and ice routes are where he loves to be, teach, and learn. Over 25 years of climbing, skiing and split boarding have taken him to the Himalayas, Andes, Alaska Range, Alps, Cascades and the Rockies. From fast and light one-day ascents on Mount Rainier’s Liberty Ridge and Mount Huntington to expeditions on Denali and Himalayan 8000m peaks, Pete loves all facets of climbing and the friendships fostered in the mountains.
