Join the NC climbing community for a weekend of connection, climbing, education, stewardship, and support of access for the next generations of climbers.

The Access Fund has confirmed a $2000 grant toward our continual invasive species control project at Hickory Creek Boulders. Just last year, we signed an agreement with the land owners at Hickory Creek Boulders and Raven Rock to open these areas to climbing.

We have some sad news to share about Eagle Rock.  The Chimney Rock State Park parking area at Eagle Rock is closed as of this week. The access road at the end of Shumont Rd crosses private property and never had guaranteed access.  Climbing is still open, but currently only accessible by parking at Buffalo Creek and hiking 10 miles on the Weed Patch Mountain Trail. We realize this is not very feasible for climbing access.
