The Bay Area Climbers Coalition (BACC) brings together climbers, land managers, businesses, and advocacy groups to protect and preserve the Bay Area’s climbing spaces. Partnering with parks, gyms, and organizations like the Access Fund and American Alpine Club, BACC leads cleanups, trail work, and educational events that keep our crags thriving. Committed to equity and inclusion, BACC works to remove barriers such as racism, classism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, ageism, and xenophobia to make climbing accessible for all. Since its founding in 2013, BACC volunteers have hauled out thousands of pounds of trash, removed graffiti, and improved access across the region, keeping Bay Area climbing clean, open, and welcoming to everyone.
