The Access Fund is a national, non-profit organization dedicated to keeping climbing areas open and to conserving the climbing environment.

The American Alpine Club was founded in 1902 and is the leading national organization in the United States devoted to mountaineering, climbing, and the multitude of issues facing climbers.

The American Safe Climbing Association (ASCA) returns classic climbing routes to their original danger level by replacing deteriorating old fixed anchors, usually bolts, with modern camouflaged gear. We do not add bolts to make climbs "safer." Climbing is inherently extremely dangerous. The ASCA has replaced over 4000 old bolts to date including many at Red Rocks and many other areas throughout the U.S., mostly in the western states.
