Biography

Wilford graduated from Poudre High School in Fort Collins, Colorado in 1977 and attended the University of Colorado at Boulder for one semester. He began climbing in 1970, and became a leading rock climber while still in high school, gradually adding bold ice climbing, alpine rock and alpine mixed routes to his accomplishments.[1] Wilford is considered a staunch traditionalist when it comes to the style and ethics of climbing.[2]

Wilford works as a Sales Representative for Julbo, La Sportiva, Sterling and Metolius.[3]

He is a climbing ambassador for Patagonia.

He was married in 2002 and lives in Fort Collins with his wife and two children.
