Access Fund Wants Your Input on NPS Fixed Anchor Proposal Report this Post Average: (3 ratings)	Can't Post

The National Park Service has released an updated draft of its wilderness management policies. The update covers a wide range of topics including provisions specific to climbing fixed anchors. Iconic climbing areas in the U.S.—including as Yosemite, Zion, Black Canyon, and Rocky Mountain national parks—would be governed by this new policy. The Access Fund is soliciting the input of the climbing community to inform our policy position on this critically important issue. Please take a moment to read our summary of the major take-aways of the proposed policy, the history of the fixed anchor debate, and the Access Fund's advocacy strategy -- then take the survey!
