The Access Fund, in partnership with the Southeastern Climbers Coalition and the Trust for Public Land work with the local community to acquire a 45-acre parcel at Mt. Yonah, a popular cliff near Atlanta, GA. In response to a closure of the private land surrounding Mt. Yonah, the 45-acre tract at the base of the mountain was identified as a priority acquisition to resolve the issue. The land was purchased by TPL with help from the AF and SCC, and later transferred to the USFS. Protection Method: partnership with SCC and TPL.
