    American Alpine ClubA
    USA Ice Climbing (USAIC) and the American Alpine Club (AAC) proudly announce that USAIC has become an independent organization and is moving toward 501(c)(3) nonprofit status. This milestone establishes USAIC as the official organization representing competitive ice climbing in the United States, supporting athletes at the national level and on the international World Cup circuit, as the sport gains global momentum and is under consideration for inclusion in the French 2030 Winter Olympics. The formation of USAIC as an independent nonprofit marks a major step in the evolution of competitive ice climbing, creating a dedicated platform to grow the sport, elevate elite athletes, and strengthen pathways from grassroots participation to international competition. Similarly, USA Skimo (Ski Mountaineering), which also shared strong roots with the AAC, debuted as the only new sport at the 2026 Milan Cortina Winter Olympics. USAIC was recently approved as an Associate Member of the International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation (UIAA), a significant achievement supported by the American Alpine Club, which serves as the United States’ National Federation Member to the UIAA. This recognition further reinforces USAIC’s role on the global stage and its commitment to international collaboration and excellence. For more information, please contact USAIC at www.usaiceclimbing.org. Founded in 1902, the American Alpine Club is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing knowledge, inspiration, and advocacy for climbers. Guided by a shared passion for climbing, the AAC delivers world-renowned resources that support and inspire the climbing community. https://americanalpineclub.org/news/2026/3/18/usa-ice-climbing-forms-as-an-independent

    #makeShitMonday, #climbing edition...@mbroome and I haven't been climbing as much this year, partly due to schedules, partly my shoulder recovery. But we got out to Pilot Mountain last Sunday with a bunch of friends, and that reminded me that I've been meaning to replace my various tied cords - prusiks and foot loop for emergency rope ascent, spare footloop that doubles as my chalkbag belt, and autoblock for rappel backup - since they're all well over a decade old by now. They all *look* fine, but cord is cheap and nylon degrades over time, so...He picked up some cord for us back in October, so we dug out the hot knife, set up a fan in the garage, and got to work. I had to go in for a respirator mask almost immediately - something about burning plastic gives me an instant headache - but we got them all cut to length and re-tied pretty quickly. Not quite the same diameters as the original cord, but I gave the autoblock a test drive on Thursday and it worked just fine! @cannibal #rockclimbing #DIY

    “Keep dreamin’, stay hungry, and remember that there is no finish line.”   This quote by Todd Skinner in the opening pages of the book Hangdog Days by Jeff Smoot gave me chills the first time I read it. In the pages that followed, I felt history come to life as I read tale after tale… https://climbingzine.com/staying-hungry-on-the-salathe-by-brittany-goris-an-excerpt/

    My the first visit to Swiss crags. Eppenberg near Aarau.Local climbers did a very good job taking care of the place. Pitty that we didn't have more time. Climbing was our lowest priority of the day. #climbing #switzerlnd
