An access and education initiative supporting underrepresented climbers.

The Pawtuckaway Project empowers underrepresented individuals through safe, inclusive access to rock climbing and outdoor recreation. We cultivate a diverse, supportive community of climbers and mentors, break down systemic barriers, and inspire lifelong participation with integrity, respect, and belonging.

ALL BLOCKS FOR ALL!!!

Rock climbing is more than just a sport; it’s a community built on trust, challenge, and shared experiences. But to truly reach new heights, we must ensure that everyone—regardless of background, race, gender, or ability—has equal access to the climbing world.

Climb Higher

Lead by example—practice allyship and encourage others to do the same.

Breaking Barriers

Help create spaces where everyone feels welcome and empowered.

Climb Together

Speak up for diversity and inclusion, both on and off the wall.

Reach New Heights

Volunteer or mentor within your local climbing community.

Together, we can create a climbing community that is stronger, more diverse, and more inclusive for everyone. Start today. Your climb, your voice, your action—make it count.
