The CAM Project

HELP KEEP TETON CLIMBING SAFE

The TCC’s Climbing Area Modernization (CAM) Project helps ensure the safety of routes in the Jackson Hole area. Our Rock Springs Buttress Audit creates a baseline assessment for existing hardware at the iconic area; our guide for new route development provides best practices for first ascensionists; and our Bad Bolt form allows climbers to report suspect hardware issues.

Delta Lake Trail Project

A TWO-PHASE SOLUTION

Delta Lake has become one of Grand Teton National Park’s most photographed destinations. Fueled by social media and GPS apps, hundreds of hikers visit daily—causing severe erosion, vegetation loss, litter, and overcrowding.

To address the damage, in the summer of 2025 the TCC, in partnership with the national climbing advocacy organization Access Fund, proposed a two-phase rehabilitation of the “social trail” to Delta Lake, then convened a site visit with Access Fund and GTNP personnel to assess trail conditions.

Following the visit, the Grand Teton National Park Foundation committed to raising the funds necessary to initiate Phase 1, which is scheduled to commence in June 2026. The funding commitment marked the successful completion of the TCC’s role in the project.
