PSA: Castle Rock has been protected. Forever. 

The Tennessee River Gorge Trust, Land Trust for Tennessee, The Southeastern Climber's Coalition, The Access Fund, and The Conservation Fund have partnered to protect Castle Rock, one of the Southeast's premier climbing areas. See climbing guide here. 

A full press release available here at Nooga.com.

Or, the Sparknotes version: 

• TCF and Harvey Cameron donated their ownership of Castle Rock to the TRGT, who now holds the fee-simple ownership rights to the land.
• LTT holds the conservation easement. 
• SCC has a lease allowing climbing privileges in return for maintaining the lands.

Now, we want to celebrate with YOU. We'll have the beer and music. You bring the party.

Cost: $5 for first beer (Castle Rock pint glasses for the first 200), $3 beers after that.
