Black Diamond Equipment has been a proud supporter of Access Fund since the beginning, and we have contributed over a million dollars since 1991. We share the same guiding principle—protecting and preserving the climbing areas that we love so dearly.
With the mission of leading our community toward sustainable access and conservation of the climbing environment, Access Fund continues to be our trusted partner in protecting access to climbing areas. For over two decades now, we have worked tirelessly together to protect and care for the wild places we love, so we can share the joy of climbing outside for generations to come.
Today, our partnership with Access Fund is crucial as the sport of climbing continues to grow. Not only are we finding sustainable solutions for access and conservation to climbing areas, but we’re also building a community of inspired advocates who will, in turn, protect the future of America’s climbing. A great example of the recent work we’ve done together is the success of the PARC Act.
Join us in supporting Access Fund and their mission to protect America’s climbing.
Supporting means:
- Enabling Access Fund to purchase threatened climbing areas through their Climbing Conservation Loan Program. This allows them to act quickly the moment access becomes a risk.
- Empowering local climbing organizations, providing them with the funding, tools, and expertise, letting them continue to protect and steward the local crag.
- Helping secure permanent access to climbing areas by transferring land acquired by Access Fund to public ownership or long-term stewardship.
