Through the efforts of Al and Doris Edwards, the Friends of Muir Valley (FoMV) has been reviewed and approved by the Access Fund and designated as an official Local Climbing Organization (LCO). FoMV joins the Red River Gorge Climbers Coalition and the Southeastern Climbers Coalition in this area of the U.S. as an LCO to represents climbers' interests in obtaining and maintaining access to climbing areas.
The Friends of Muir Valley, as a volunteer group separate from the landowners, Rick and Liz Weber, assists with infrastructure needs and operation of Muir Valley. As landowners, Liz and I do not accept monetary donations to MV, however we are grateful for donations made to the Friends of Muir Valley to help fund MV projects, such as trail building, bridges, etc.
This group's website is at http://www.friendsofmuirvalley.org
In the next few days, information will be posted for those interested in assisting with donations of time and money in the support of Muir Valley.
