Daniel Mazur (born 1961) is a US mountaineer, guide and expedition leader. In addition to being a notable climber in his own right, he is most widely known for his discovery and assistance in the rescue of Lincoln Hall, an Australian climber on Everest on 25 May 2006.

Mazur and his fellow climbers - Andrew Brash (Canada), Myles Osborne (UK) and Jangbu Sherpa - in abandoning their own attempt on the summit in order to assist Hall epitomised the noblest traditions of mountaineering. Lincoln Hall (born 1956) is a veteran Australian mountain climber and author. ... The Everest entry redirects here. ...
