PROJECT NAME:
Eagle Bluff
GRANTEE:
Access Fund
RESULT:
1 climbing area acquired

The Access Fund secured permanent public access and long-term conservation of Eagle Bluff in Central Maine for future generations of climbers, hikers, and other human-powered recreationalists to enjoy.  The Conservation Alliance provided the funds necessary to complete the acquisition of this 165-acre crag that climbers have been enjoying since the 1960’s. Today, the area features over 130 cracks and sport climbs as well as bouldering below the bluff and a popular trail to the top of the bluff.
