Looking for a way to afford your next climbing adventure?

Well, the DMC has money for you! The DMC adventure fund supports trips that send club members to places that will enhance their climbing and leadership abilities, as well as potentially explore new climbing areas for the DMC.

In the past, the adventure fund has supported all kinds of trips to all different parts of the globe, like the South Africa climbing trip over last winterim that was featured in the winning film at the Moosilauke Film Festival!

To apply, send an application to [log in to unmask] AND [log in to unmask] Both groups and individuals may apply.

Applications should be similar in style to Schlitz applications, and should cover the following subjects:


  1.  Basic information about the trip (people going, dates, location)
  2.  Personal background (why are you qualified for the trip, what will you get out of it)
  3.  Detailed itinerary (specific dates and locations, travel and lodging logistics)
  4.  Budget (room and board, food, transportation, guidebook) -- please include spreadsheet breakdown per individual
  5.  Risk management and safety report (including climbing style and equipment, location-specific hazards, weather)
  6.  How the trip will enhance the DMC

Trips that receive money will be well-planned, cost-efficient, and have climbing be their primary motivation. Applicants should display thoughtfulness in assessing risk and the limitations of their own abilities.

Applications are due by midnight on Monday, August 6th 2018. The total amount of money available is not fixed, but for reference, past successful applicants have received funding on the order of several hundred dollars.

Scending Love,
