When you think “climbing advocacy,” who comes to mind? You might think of someone who volunteers for every trail day or bolt replacement event, a policy powerhouse, or a champion for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion in climbing.

Each year, we celebrate the work of advocates from around the country with our Climbing Advocate Awards. It’s our chance—as a community—to lift up some unsung heroes who work to protect, conserve, and enhance climbing areas and opportunities. If someone like that comes to mind, nominate them today!

Submit your nominations by January 31.
