The Eastern Pennsylvania Alliance of Climbers is dedicated to promoting education, safeguarding access, building community, and preserving our natural lands for rock climbers of the past, present, and future. EPAC is an Access Fund affiliated Local Climbing Organization (LCO). EPAC seeks to educate as well as partner with climbers and land managers in regards to responsible climbing practices, sustainable trail building, risk management strategies, natural resource management and many other aspects related to being good stewards of our lands. While our main focus may be on the activity of climbing, we recognize that climbers share the land with other user groups. Therefore, EPAC hopes to join with other organizations and/or provide support for their conservation efforts as well.
