From launching a new location of Climber Stewards to thousands of feet of sustainable trails, join us in celebrating another incredible year of American climbing advocacy. With the support of climbers around the country, Access Fund preserved access at 191 climbing areas, opened six private lands to climbing, and secured an emergency court order in the ongoing fight to protect Oak Flat. But that's not all. We spent 245 hours representing climbers in Washington, D.C., awarded $160,886 to local climbing organizations through grants and joint membership, and supported 27 areas with conservation and rebolting grants.

Behind every win is the work of real climbers — 4,078 volunteer hours stewarding America's crags, 7,042 feet of sustainable trails constructed or maintained, and 16,450 Climber Steward conversations on responsible outdoor ethics. And we're proud to announce that Climber Stewards have officially launched in Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area.

As we look ahead to a new year of climbing advocacy, we want to thank our members, supporters, and all of the local climbing organizations across the country. None of this would be possible without you.
