FRAMEWORK
A community is made up of both individuals and larger entities like businesses and nonprofits. We partner with our community to reach our goals. Funding for our programs comes from both of these groups.
​
We partner with individuals primarily to implement our conservation and development goals. This includes activities like area clean-ups, trail building and maintenance, as well as promoting a unified voice in terms of access discussions.
​
Our partnerships with larger entities are not solely about funding. We work with businesses and nonprofits to help accomplish many of our educational goals. These include instruction on area development, conservation, proper climbing safety and etiquette, and character development through programs offered by EC3, our education branch.
