Alex Honnold

Alex Honnold is an American rock climber known for his free solo ascents of big walls, including his historic climb of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park.


"I know that when I'm standing alone below a thousand-foot wall, looking up and considering a climb, my sponsors are the furthest thing from my mind. If I'm going to take risks, they are going to be for myself - not for any company."
