BURSTThe Access Fund, the leading access group in the U.S.A., has broken the news that the new senate budget bill puts thousands of routes and over a dozen famous areas at risk of being sold.
The bill hasn’t passed yet, but climbing organisations are urging climbers to contact their senator to vote not to the bill. Check out the interactive map from the Wilderness Society that shows the 258 million acres of public lands that will be designated for sale here.
The climbing areas at risk include:
Ten Sleep Canyon
Vedauwoo
Wild Iris
Buttermilks
Pine Creek Canyon
Shelf Road
Joe’s Valley
Maple Canyo
The Fisher Towers
Mill Creek
Little Cottonwood Canyon
Cochise Stronghold
Sedona
The Fins
Smith Rock (what’s not in the par)
