The Access Fund is the only national organization that keeps climbing areas open and conserves the climbing environment.

Founded in 1991, hte Access Fund supports and represents over 1.6 million climbers in all forms of climbing: rock climbing, ice climbing, mountaineering, and bouldering. Over the last 18 years we have spent millions of dollars on land acquisitions, local conservation projects, support for grassroots activism, climber education, and representation in the public policy arena. We now have over 15,000 members and affiliates and the support of the climbing industry. We work with hundreds of corporate and community partners, 70 affiliated local climbing organizations, and 30 regional coordinators to advocate on behalf of climbers in the U.S.
