Adopt A Crag NOVEMBER 24!
CASA's November 24 Adopt a Crag: Crags Against Humanity Pilot Project Kickoff Help CASA launch our new groundbreaking initiative to upgrade the trails and landings at the Crags Against Humanity climbing area to improve access and prevent erosion.
When: Sunday, November 24 | 8:00am — 1:30pm Where: Crags Against Humanity, Santa Catalina Highway Why: This is the first climbing infrastructure project on the Coronado National Forest since its inception in 1908—over a century! For the past 10 years, CASA has worked closely with the Forest Service to build strong relations and allow projects such as this to proceed. This project helps legitimize climbing on Forest Lands. It also paves the way for the Forest Service to directly support climbing and climbing access through improvements to trail, access routes, and landings. Are you excited to be a part of history??

CRAGS AGAINST HUMANITY PROJECT
The Crags Against Humanity Project, an initiative aimed at preserving and enhancing climbing areas, has recently achieved a significant milestone. The project, led by the CASA Stewardship Lead Eric Ruljancich, has received NEPA (National Environmental Policy Act) approval from the Coronado National Forest (CNF). This approval marks a crucial step forward in the project's goal of adopting and improving the area known as Crags Against Humanity, located within the CNF. More information can be found in the Stewardship News. |
