The Concerned Climbers of Arizona has been formed to preserve climbing access and the climbing environment. We advocate for continued recreational access to climbing areas that are threatened by development or other forms of encroachment.
We are seeking to maintain the integrity of our federally protected recreational resources such as Oak Flat. It's been protected for a good reason, let's keep it that way.
The special interest legislation for a foreign mining company will result in the destruction of a federally protected recreational resource. This national precedent-setting legislation presents potential risk for any other "protected" recreational areas.
We seek to preserve maximum climbing in Arizona. Particularly important right now is keeping what we have created over many years, climbing and bouldering at Oak Flat's many different areas. The CCA advocates on behalf of the approximately 2,000 climbs that are at risk at Oak Flat. This potential massive loss in climbing is also unprecedented in scale for our nation.
We welcome and encourage your participation. We are open to all. Please feel free to join us at our next meeting in Boulders on Broadway!
BRING YOUR IDEAS, ACCESS ISSUES AND QUESTIONS! WE WANT TO HEAR YOU~
6:30pm 2/28/11 Boulders in Tempe
