We are committed to advancing safe and ethical practices in the mountains, while also promoting responsible access, cultural appreciation, and environmental stewardship.

Recognized by the Department of the Treasury, we serve as a leading association representing mountaineering and sport climbing communities. Our mission encompasses a diverse range of purposes related to mountaineering, climbing, and outdoor pursuits.
