Si Honnold namundag sa Sacramento, California, aki nin sarong propesor sa kolehiyo na si Dierdre Wolownick (nmdg. 1951)[6] asin amang si Charles Honnold (1949–2004).[7][8] An dugong ginikanan niya sa parteng ama Aleman, asin sa parteng ina Polako.[9] Siya nagpoon pagtukad-tukad sa edad sanang 5 asin sige an pagtukad "dakul na beses sa semana" sa pag'edad 10.[10] Siya nagpartisipar sa dakulon na mga mga nasyonal asin internasyonal na kampeonato sa pagtukad kan siya hubin pa.

"I was never, like, a bad climber [as a kid], but I had never been a great climber, either," he says. "There were a lot of other climbers who were much, much stronger than me, who started as kids and were, like, instantly freakishly strong  like they just have a natural gift. And that was never me. I just loved climbing, and I've been climbing all the time ever since, so I've naturally gotten better at it, but I've never been gifted."[11]

Si Honnold nagbutas pagklase sa Berkeley asin inubos oras sa harong asin paglibot-libot sa California sa tuyong magparatukad. "I'd wound up with my mom's old minivan, and that was my base," sabi niya. "I'd use it to drive to Joshua Tree to climb or I'd drive to LA to see my girlfriend. I destroyed that van fairly quickly; it died on me one day, and for the next year, I lived just on my bicycle and in a tent."[12]

Kan 2007, nagbakal siya nin modelo 2002 Ford Econoline E150 van, na nagtaong lugar saiya makapokus sa pagtukad asin pag'antabay sa kamugtakan kan panahon.[13][14]

Susog sa 2011 Alpinist profile:[13]

In the mind of the climbing world, Honnold emerged from the goo fully formed. In 2006 nobody had heard of him. In 2007 he free soloed Yosemite's Astroman and the Rostrum in a day, matching Peter Croft's legendary 1987 feat, and suddenly Honnold was pretty well-known. A year later, he free soloed the 1,200-foot (366m), 5.12d finger crack that splits Zion's Moonlight Buttress. The ascent was reported on April 1. For days, people thought the news was a joke. Five months afterward, Honnold took the unprecedented step of free soloing the 2,000-foot (610m), glacially bulldozed Regular Northwest Face of Half Dome. Croft called this climb the most impressive ropeless ascent ever done.

Siya nakakua nin hustong pagkamidbid kan dakulon na tawo kan ginibo niya an 2008 solong pagtukad Regular Northwest Face of Half Dome na itinampok sa pelikulang Alone on the Wall[15] dangan nasundan kaidto kan interbyu sa 60 Minutes.[16]

Kan Nobyembre 2011, si Honnold asin Hans Florine dai nakua sa speed climbing an rekord duman sa bantogan na Nose big-wall crack climbing route sa Yosemite's El Capitan nin 45 segundo.[17] Kan panahon na idto an rekord nakapugal sa 2:36:45, sa pagtandaan kan Dean Potter & Sean Leary kan Nobyembre 2010.[18] Kan Hunyo 17, 2012, si Honnold asin Florine nakakurit bagong rekord nin 2:23:46 (o 2:23:51[19]) sa parehong ruta.[20][21]

"We concluded that these forms of the sport are pushing boundaries and taking the element of risk to a place where we as a company are no longer willing to go," an kompanya nagpahayag sa sarong bukas na surat.[10][22]
