* AlpinFilm welcomed more than 1,000 attendees for two days of films, speakers, and conversations celebrating adventure, conservation, and our shared responsibility to care for public lands.
* Our Safe Climbing Initiative continued to provide affordable gym-to-crag instruction taught by Exum and Jackson Hole Mountain Guides
* We initiated the Delta Lake Trail Project in partnership with Grand Teton National Park Foundation and the Access Fund, helping restore one of GTNP’s most heavily impacted trails.
* We established the Women’s Grand Scholarship Fund, a permanent fund designed to ensure that the Women’s Grand Scholarship—a needs-based, all-women, fully guided ascent of the Grand Teton—continues in perpetuity.

We are grateful to our many supporters and partners including @themtnguides Dawn Rucker, Travel & Tourism Board
