Access Fund and WCCC are pleased to announce the transfer of three major
cliffs in Unaweep Canyon from Access Fund to WCCC. This marks a key milestone
in the 25-year history of conservation and public access in the canyon.
This transfer consolidates and permanently protects 50 acres
of land under local nonprofit ownership by WCCC. The 50 acres includes eight
cliffs and approximately 200 high-quality granite climbing routes, acquired by
either Access Fund or WCCC since the early 1990s. Access Fund will maintain a
permanent conservation and recreation easement on these properties to back up
WCCC’s long-term commitment and ensure conservation and climbing access into
perpetuity.
“Conservation of Unaweep Canyon has been a partnership since
the beginning,” says Access Fund Executive Director Brady Robinson. “Our goal
is to empower and support local climbing organizations like WCCC to own,
manage, and steward their local climbing areas.”
Access Fund purchased the cliffs known as Sunday, Fortress,
and Hidden Valley in 1991 in partnership with three local climbers. Further
west, WCCC secured the Upper Mothers Buttress with the help of Colorado
climbers John and Marti Peterson in 2010. Then in October of 2014, WCCC completed
a long negotiation to purchase the Lower Mothers Buttress and Television Wall
areas with a $134,200 Access Fund Climbing Conservation Loan.
WCCC conducted an extensive fund-raising effort that
included grants from the Access Fund and Alpenglow Foundation, as well as gifts
from Shaw Construction, realtor Christi Reece, and others. WCCC will maintain
the cliff line and public access while subdividing and selling residential lots
along State Highway 141. A similar conservation strategy was successfully
employed by Access Fund in the 1990s and allowed WCCC to secure Upper Mothers
Buttress in 2010. The Access Fund easement will protect the land for public
access, and the transfer will enable WCCC to adjust property lines for the
future sale of road frontage. WCCC is currently working on the pending
subdivision and sale with a potential buyer that has expressed a shared
interest in climbing and conservation of Unaweep Canyon.
“Protecting Unaweep Canyon’s cliff line is an important part
of WCCC’s work and mission as the local nonprofit climbing organization for the
region,” says WCCC President Jesse Zacher. “We’re fortunate to have great
partners and supporters to make this project happen.” WCCC extends its thanks
to Steve Johnson, Marc Kenney, and Dave Foley for providing pro bono legal, engineering, and survey
work.
WCCC needs the continued support of climbers, recreationists,
and the people of western Colorado to fundraise for the acquisition and stewardship
of Unaweep Cliffs. Donations are encouraged and can be madehere, on our website.
