Some Famous People called Sonnie Trotter
Sonnie Trotter
Sonnie Trotter (born November 15, 1979, in Toronto), is a Canadian professional climber, known for his strength in many rock climbing disciplines, contributing to hundreds of first ascents around the world.
Trotter began climbing in 1997 at age 16, and became the first Canadian to climb grade 5.14c, and the third North American to have established a 5.14d route. In later years, Trotter gained notoriety for his support of clean traditional routes over bolted routes, and his first ascent of the Cobra Crack in Squamish, British Columbia. In 2006, he made Squamish history when he and his climbing partner Matt Segal connected The Shadow (5.13b), The Grand Wall (5.13b), and The Black Dyke (5.13b), on the Stawamus Chief all free in a single 12-hour push.
'Trotter has been featured in three award-winning films. "The Cobra Crack", won the best short film at the BIMFF in 2006. "If you're not falling" won Best Short Film at BIMFF in 2008 and "First Ascent" is the winner of multiple awards. Trotter is also prominently featured in the opening scenes of the hit motion picture 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2' being chased by Bella while free soloing."
Trotter is also a writer, photographer and public speaker. He is also certified as an assistant Rock Climbing Guide through the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides.
He currently works at Elevation Place in Canmore, Alberta. He lives in Canmore with his wife and son.
