Terray Sylvester

Guide

Terray Sylvester has pursued mountain sports for more than 30 years. Originally from the Lake Tahoe area of California, he grew up climbing and skiing in the Sierra Nevada mountains with his father, Rick Sylvester, a lifelong adventurer perhaps best known for performing rock climbing and ski BASE jump stunts for two James Bond films. Terray has climbed and guided on all seven continents, including nine successful ascents of 8,000-meter peaks. He looks forward to each opportunity to share his passion for the mountains with his guests. Working in close cooperation with our local staff and partners, he has helped spearhead our cleanup efforts on K2, Lhotse, Annapurna 1 and 6,000-meter peaks in Nepal's Khumbu Region. Terray also works as an editorial photographer. His photos, articles, and Emmy-award winning video footage have been published by the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, Red Bull, Newsweek, the NFL Network and many other publications
