Protected: Monongahela National Forest Climbing Management Plan

In the summer of 2020, the Monongahela National Forest began formally notifying the climbing community about plans to develop a climbing management plan for the Spruce Knob-Seneca Rocks National Recreation Area. This plan will cover management of some of the most outstanding trad and sport climbing opportunities in the mid-Atlantic region, including Seneca Rocks, Smoke Hole, and Reed's Creek. As one of the local climbing organizations in the mid-Atlantic region, Mid Atlantic Climbers is working with the Forest Service throughout this process, as well as engaging with the local community to ensure all voices are heard.
