The CCC provides climbers with access to public and private lands, conservation and LNT education, stewardship and trail work opportunities, and more. Every holiday season, we invite our community to support us through the purchase of Protectors Program Packages. In previous years, the Protector's Program has raised over $7,500 for the protection and expansion of climbing on wild lands in the Carolinas.
If you love the fact that the CCC has protected or created public access to areas like Maibauer Boulders, Sauratown, Raven Rock, Pumpkintown, Rocky Fork, Laurel Knob, Buckeye Knob, Hidden Valley, Asheboro Boulders, Big Rock, Buffalo Creek, Eagle Rock, Rumbling Bald, McKinney Gap, and much more, then this program is for you.
