WA Pass Guide Stewardship Day

The AMGA hosted a Guide Stewardship Day at Washington Pass on September 20, 2018 with 8 Washington-based climbing guides, 2 professional trail builders from the Access Fund Conservation Team, and 3 Forest Service climbing rangers from the Methow Valley Ranger District. They hardened and stabilized existing sections of trail to improve climber access to the Liberty Bell group at Washington Pass. This project was part of the Liberty Bell Conservation Initiative spearheaded by The Access Fund, Washington Climbers Coalition, and The Mountaineers. It was an excellent opportunity to give back to a much-loved climbing area, show support for resource-friendly climbing access, build relationships with the Forest Service and other partners, and ensure sustainable access to the Liberty Bell group for generations to come. Thanks to all who participated.
