The Access Fund
(click above)

The Access Fund is a national, non-profit conservation and advocacy organization which represents the interests of more than 1,000,000 active rock and mountain climbers in the United States. The Access Fund's mission is to conserve the climbing environment and to keep climbing areas open. To accomplish this the Access Fund provides funding for conservation and resource impact mitigation projects; produces climber educational materials and programs; underwrites scientific studies relevant to climbing; acquires and manages land; works closely with land managers in the planning and implementation of public lands management and policy; and works with private landowners to adopt access agreements that promote responsible enjoyment and conservation of the landowner's property.
