Will Stanhope - Since starting climbing at the Edge Climbing Center in North Vancouver at age 8, Will has moved on to bigger and bigger objectives while still trying to maintain the freeclimbing ethics. As a kid, inspired by glossy magazines featuring the likes of Sonnie Trotter, Will stole his dad´s climbing rack and has yet to return it. Starting with an eye-opening trip to Patagonia a few years ago, Will has since gotten excited for the mountains.
