Todd Passey

Certified IFMGA Mountain Guide

Todd grew up in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains, where skiing  moguls and exploring his local mountains laid the foundation for a lifelong career  in the outdoors. Over the past two decades, that passion has taken him across all  seven continents—leading skiing and climbing expeditions from Antarctica to  Svalbard, the Himalayas, the Alaska Range, the Alps and beyond.

As an IFMGA/UIAGM-certified Mountain Guide with extensive global experience,  Todd has pioneered routes on virgin Antarctic peaks, guided clients to the Seven  Summits, the highest peaks on all seven continents, and built a reputation for sound  judgment, technical mastery, and leading with clarity and confidence in demanding  mountain environments. 

What sets Todd apart is his focus on people. He believes mountain guiding is about  more than objectives—it’s about building trust, supporting personal growth, and  making the process as enjoyable as the goal. Whether he’s enjoying Wasatch  powder turns with a new guest or leading a complex international expedition, he  brings a positive attitude, clear communication, and a strong sense of camaraderie to every trip. 

Today, Todd guides with Wasatch Mountain Guides and In The Company of Guides, where he continues to create rewarding, memorable experiences rooted in  professionalism, fun, and genuine connection.
