Biography

Todd Pendleton is an American climber from Scottsdale, Arizona, who was working as a firefighter and paramedic when he climbed Everest. He climbed the 7 summits over seven years, starting on Aconcagua in January 2011 and finishing on Vinson on 6 January 2018. He climbed both Kosciuszko and Carstensz Pyramid, so the round completed both versions of the list.

He reached the summit of Everest on 17 May 2013 from Nepal by the South Col route, with a Berg Adventures expedition led by Wally Berg. In November 2022 he also climbed Ama Dablam.
