Climbing and mountaineering present some management and conservation challenges and opportunities. The management of mountaineering and climbing areas is a reality and a necessity, and it involves understanding core principles and values, as well as different types of climbers and mountaineers’ expectations and needs.
We are mountaineers and climbers passionate about the mountains. We have a responsibility to care for the places we explore.
Acceso PanAm addresses conservation issues through long-term commitments, inspiring resource management through initiatives that promote diverse experiences in natural areas.
What Can We Do?
Trail construction and maintenance, visitor education, reforestation, trash clean-ups. Learn more here. If we do not improve as a community and address growing ecological and social impacts, the future history of climbing may be left for others to write and regulate.
