Sonnie Trotter was born and raised in the flatlands of southern Ontario, where he began climbing as a teenager. On a trip to Colorado he fell in love with mountains and the vagabond lifestyle, and lived out of various vehicles for many years. He won a national championship in his early 20s but left competitive climbing to focus on developing new routes and pushing the limits of outdoor climbing. His accomplishments span nearly every discipline, from deep-water soloing to big wall free climbs. Trotter lives with his wife, Lydia, and their two children in Canmore, Alberta, where he works as a writer, photographer, product developer, coach, and guide.
