Eleven times on the Everest summit. Kenton Cool is without doubt the most formidable mountaineer of his generation. -- Sir Ranulph Fiennes
I have seen a compassionate and gentle side to Kenton that others with equal drive and commitment don’t have. His record in the world’s mighty mountains is remarkable. I hope he is admired as much for the man he is, as his achievements. -- His Royal Highness Prince Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuck, First Crown Prince of Bhutan
I’ve watched Kenton’s development over the last decade into one of the world’s pre-eminent climbers.

Kenton's obsession with rock climbing developed at school and was furthered at the University of Leeds. In 1996 he suffered a fall from a rock face and shattered both heel bones. After rehabilitation Kenton climbed extensively all over the world - establishing new routes and first ascents on peaks in Alaska, France and India. In recent years the Olympic pledge and the Everest Triple Crown have cemented Kenton's position as one of Britain's most high-profile and celebrated climbers. He is regularly featured on BBC TV and Radio and has been profiled in the Sunday Times, the Daily Telegraph and the Guardian, along with adventure publications such as Outside Magazine and Sidetracked. He lives in Gloucestershire with his wife, Jazz, and children, Saffron and Willoughby.
