The BCC, in conjunction with the UM Climbing Club, coordinates seasonal clean-ups of the local crags and trail maintenance on an as-needed basis. The BCC also works to maintain safe and respectful climbing practices throughout Western Montana. In 2008, BCC members and Boulder Bash participants cleaned up Lost Horse Canyon, leaving the place far cleaner than they found it.

 

If you would like to host a clean-up event, or notice a problem in the Bitterroot that we can help take care of, let us know as soon as you can!
