We advocate, steward and engage on behalf of Teton climbers.

"I support the Teton Climbers’ Coalition because t "I support the Teton Climbers’ Coalition because they get things done. Their successful lobbying effort resulted in a bigger climbing gym, but my enthusiasm really surged when they  led the charge to improve the beat-down user trail to Delta Lake in Grand Teton National Park, something that had for many years degraded to a condition that hurt the eyes and damped the spirits. 

"To help with these and many other programs, I’m all in."—Adventure photographer Wade McCoy

Climbing has also been an important part of my healing and personal growth, and supporting an organization that works to protect access, foster community, and make climbing more inclusive is a way I can give back to a place that has given me so much.

"I'm grateful for all the work TCC does and I'm excited to be a part of it!"—TCC Founding Member Sarah Finlay

We're proud of all our Winter Olympians... but the We're proud of all our Winter Olympians... but there's a special place in our hearts for Anna Gibson, shown here at AlpinFilm last month with fellow endurance phenomenon Kelly Halpin.

Anna and Kelly were instrumental to the development of AlpinFilm's focus on public lands. Both are smart, powerful, fierce defenders of America's wild places—the sources of our inspiration.

Anna will make her Olympic debut in SkiMo on Feb. 19. We're rooting for you, Anna!

"The Grand was my first technical climb and so muc "The Grand was my first technical climb and so much fun that I married my partner the next day at Schwabacher's Landing. Having spent years visiting and climbing here and now living in the Valley, I’m grateful for the TCC’s leadership and long-term commitment to these mountains." 

"The TCC plays a critical role in stewarding and supporting the broader Teton climbing community. Their work ensures these landscapes are cared for thoughtfully and that climbers have a strong, responsible voice at the table." — TCC Founding Member Keegan Young, Executive Director, Teton County Search and Rescue Foundation

From spearheading the Delta Lake Trail rehabilitation project to teaching climbers the skills they need to stay safe in the mountains to restoring suspect hardware at crags throughout the Valley, the TCC exists to make climbing better for all of us.
