Access Fund is launching this survey to better understand the preferences, motivations, and concerns of all climbers—whether you’re a new climber who has never heard of Access Fund or a longtime climber and committed supporter. The better we understand your perspectives, the better we can serve you in our work to protect America’s climbing.

As a thank you, each person who completes the 2024 Climber Survey will be entered to win a Mystery Ranch Scree 32 Backpack and a YETI Tundra 45 cooler.

The varied, often committing, and not so straight forward climbing across the Carolinas helps breed strong climbers with diverse skill sets. This is certainly the case with NC native Nathan Brown. Big congrats to Nathan, for establishing “Spirit Animal”, a 10 pitch 5.11, completed rope solo over a few year period and located deep in the Rocky Mountains. Nearly any area in NC, you can find a quality route crafted by Nathan Brown. Big congrats and thanks for all you do for climbing, Nathan! For a more comprehensive story take a look at the journal: https://publications.americanalpineclub.org/articles/13201216790 Photo is Nathan’s accommodations on the P5 ledge of Spirit Animal.

We’re stoked to announce that on September 6th we will have a public trail day at Whiteside!

Come help us give back to this incredible climbing destination. Whiteside is a premier ice and multi-pitch climbing destination. For anyone who has had the pleasure of a full length route up the main wall, or an ice route on the north face, you likely agree.

This day will be focused on clogging the many cut through trails in order to start helping Nantahala National Forest personell keep up with the maintenance needed on the summit trail.

Our focus will be on the first 1/4 mile of the Whiteside Loop Trail, before the climber path to the main face. Bring hand saws, rakes, leaf blowers, gloves, and closed toed shoes. Also bring everything you need for a day in the woods. If you plan to climb afterwards; bring your gear just in case!

Some important updates regarding road access to Cedar Rock in Pisgah National Forest. Starting August 1st, Trout Unlimited in cooperation with National Forests in North Carolina are replacing corrugated metal pipe culverts on Cathey’s Creek Road with ecologically-functional crossing structures. This project, from FSR471C – Charles Creek to Ziegler Road, aims to improve habitat for native Brook Trout and enhance road resilience.

🚧 The road will be closed until late October from FSR471C to Ziegler Road, affecting access to FSR471D – Butter Gap. This temporary closure is crucial for the installation of wider, fish-friendly culverts that allow for better stream flow and fish movement.

🐟 These upgrades are essential as narrow culverts often obstruct stream channels, leading to erosion and blocking fish passage. By improving access to cooler waters and vital spawning habitats, Trout Unlimited is helping Brook Trout populations thrive!

💧 Additionally, these projects enhance road durability, preventing future flood damage like we saw during Tropical Storm Fred. These new culverts are designed to withstand 100-year flood events, ensuring both ecological and infrastructural resilience.

Please be mindful of how these road closures will impact road access to Cedar Rock and plan your climbing day accordingly.

Thank you to Trout Unlimited and North Carolina National Forests for working to protect trout habitat, improve stream health, and enhance our Forest Service Roads in Pisgah!

📸 1: brook trout that came from just downstream of an undersized culvert on Cathey’s Creek. 2: undersized culvert on Cathey’s Creek. 3: runoff from the road entering the tributary at the culvert.

We are $2000 from reaching our $5,000 rebolting campaign goal! Help us bridge the gap and know that your donation is matched dollar for dollar by projectROCKEasley.
