Protect

WyoClimbers’ mission began with one goal: make climbing in Lander safer. Today, that volunteer work continues through bolt replacement, trail restoration, raptor conservation, and stewardship that ensures these areas remain open and accessible for generations to come.

  • Access and advocacy

    Maintaining access to climbing and climbing areas is key for our organization. We work with land managers, policy makers, local community leaders, and other climbing/recreational organizations to promote and maintain access.

  • Rebolting and route maintenance

    We work with the American Safe Climbing Association (ASCA) to rebolt and provide anchors and hardware on routes in the Lander area. To this day, we’ve replaced over 6000 bolts and counting.

  • Seasonal closures and wildlife updates

    There are many species that live close in proximity to some of the best limestone climbing here in Lander.

  • Wag bag program

    As climbers, we have a responsibility to keep the areas we recreate in clean. We’ve partnered with the LOR foundation to provide wag bag stations at Wild Iris, Sinks Canyon, and Fossil Hill.

  • Stewardship days

    Each year, we provide over 300 volunteer hours on projects with the State Park, the Forest Service, or the City of Lander. To get involved, follow our social media for information about our next volunteer day.
