Access Fund is honored to recognize Dave Haavik for his dedicated leadership of Washington Climbers Coalition (WCC). Dave has been instrumental in countless access and stewardship projects, including the campaign to save the Lower Index Town Wall in 2009 and the ongoing Liberty Bell Conservation Initiative. For over a decade, Haavik kept WCC on track with strong, organizational leadership, board planning, and a supportive get-things-done mentality. Every local climbing organization needs a board director working hard behind the scenes to make their organization sustainable and mission-driven, and Dave is that person. As Dave humbly noted, “The Great UCLA Basketball coach once said ‘It is amazing how much can be accomplished if no one cares who gets the credit.’ That pretty much sums up how WCC works. In my mind, this award is as much about the WCC board as it is about me.”

Access Fund is honored to present Wilderness Land Trust, a specialized nonprofit organization established to buy and protect wilderness land, with the Land Conservation Award for completing the multi-year effort to acquire and permanently protect Castle Crags in northern California. Castle Crags is home to an expansive cluster of multi-pitch rock climbing and wilderness alpine adventures. In 2013, Access Fund provided Wilderness Land Trust with a grant and loan to help secure the property from a timber company. In 2018, Wilderness Land Trust successfully transferred Castle Crags to the Forest Service for longterm climber friendly management, and made its final payment to the Climbing Conservation Loan Program, returning critical funds that will help Access Fund save another threatened climbing area.
