This fall, Utah Open Lands will again host an Access Fund sponsored Adopt a Crag event at Castleton Tower on Saturday and Sunday, October 24th and 25th. This year, our main effort will be to construct tent platforms to better serve campers. Tent platforms will also help protect the underlying conservation resource. The idea being that flat spots for tents will get used over and over again thus helping to eliminate campground sprawl.

Please know that if you can only spare one day or half of a day you are still very much welcome. Also, if you want to climb one day and volunteer the other any effort you can put towards this project will be greatly appreciated.
