Why Join the CCC?
Annual membership is a way to show your support for the CCC, support for the climbing areas you enjoy, and play a role in the leadership of the climbing community. Membership dollars are one of the primary ways to generate funds towards purchasing land, toward climbing advocacy, and towrds stewardship work. View our Story Map to see how CCC member funds have been utilized since 1995.
Your annual membership also grants you these tangible benefits. You must re-new every year to receive the benefits:
- Access to the Asheboro boulders -you must be a CCC member to enter the boulderfield
- 10% discount on all purchases at Black Dome Mountain Sports in Asheville
- 10% off at Bigfoot Climbing Gym in Morganton, NC
- 10% discount on membership, classes and day passes at Climb Upstate in Spartanburg, SC
- 10% discount at Second Gear in Asheville
- 10%-15% off Hyland Cabins; a VERY quick walk to Laurel Knob! Rental info here. Tell them you are a CCC member before booking for your discount!
- 15% discount at Backcountry (see details here)
- Free PDF guides to Sauratown, Table Rock SC and Little Bearwallow Falls (look under "Climbing Areas" on our website)
- Knowing that you are supporting proven, effective, climber-focused work
Without donations we receive or memberships we gain, it would be impossible for the CCC to pursue keeping climbing areas open for future generations. You can join on-line or at the "Join" link in the menu. Plus, you'll climb better knowing that you've done something to support protecting, preserving and expanding climbing opportunities in the Carolinas!
