Mission: To protect, preserve, and expand climbing opportunities in the Carolinas. 

THE RIVER RUNS ON - a documentary directed and produced by Garrett Martin follows conservationists throughout southern Appalachia as they struggle to manage two of the most important national forests in America - the Pisgah and Nantahala. The film revolves around the Pisgah-Nantahala Forest Plan, a plan the US Forest Service is finalizing that will dictate how these two national forests are managed for the next twenty years. The result is a meditation on our relationship to nature, our role in managing lands and what it may mean for the future. 

After the film, we're thrilled to host a panel discussion featuring local experts who will shed light on the intricacies of the Pisgah-Nantahala Forest Plan. Engage in a meaningful conversation and gain valuable insights into the future of these forests.

Panelists:
Josh Kelly, Public Lands Biologist, Mountain True
Kevin Massey, Executive Director, Wild South
Manley Fuller, VP of Conservation Policy, NC Wildlife Federation 
Megan Sutton, Program Director, The Nature Conservancy 
Kristian Jackson, Sr. Lecturer, Appalachian State University Mike Reardon, Executive Director, Carolina Climbers Coalition


The Carolina Climber's Coalition was established January 16, 1995 with the purposes of preserving the natural environment, promoting safe climbing practices and preserving climber's access to climbing areas in North and South Carolina.
