Rachel Carson Adopt-A-Crag

  • 22201 Zion Road Brookeville, MD, 20833 United States (map)

Join the Mid Atlantic Climbers in graffiti removal at Rachel Carson Conservation Park. Feel free to bring your climbing gear to send some post-project climbs!

The primary focus of this project graffiti removal. Work will consist of using Elephant Snot, scrubbing paint with provided brushes, and using a pressure washer to remove the paint & product. We will be carrying in multiple gallons of water and carrying out all of our waste. Because this is a graffiti project, wear clothing you don’t mind getting dirty. We recommend long pants and long sleeves, as some volunteers have reported minor skin irritation due to prolonged skin contact with the graffiti removal product we will be using. We provide all PPE (goggles, gloves, masks) but if you have your own working gloves in your preferred size, please bring them along.

For all Adopt a Crag events, please remember:

  • Wear closed toed shoes. Long sleeves and pants are recommended.

  • Bring water, snacks, and extra layers for the elements.

  • Be prepared to be challenged, work hard, and gain karma points!

  • ​​Although we'll be outside, if you are feeling ill or have had any recent exposure to Covid please reconsider and stay home to rest up!

If you have any questions, please contact shayna@midatlanticclimbers.org
