The Jeep Conservation Team is the Access Fund's "on-the-road" team of climbing area stewards. They're travelling around the US, 10 months a year, assessing climbing area conservation and stewardship needs, working with locals to address these needs, training best management practices and motivating volunteers.

 

This time around, the Conservation Team (CT) will be in your area, working with the Washington Climbers Coalition (WCC) and our partners at a variety of local events and Adopt a Crags. Take a look at their busy schedule below, their WA visit kicks off off TOMORROW!
