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.
LVCIL can assess your existing and proposed trails for accessibility, and give practical written and verbal recommendations to proper trail design and uses. LVCIL can assess the trail throughout the building process to ensure proper slopes and best practices are followed. Our extensive knowledge of outdoor facilities from parking lots, trail heads, restrooms, fishing piers, kayak launches, highlighting natural features, can help you in creating a functional and esthetically pleasing trail experience for all.
