Why it matters
A crag closed for falcon nesting until August, a gym that raised its membership $20 a month with a lock-in window, a new access purchase that opens a classic area, a permit change at Red Rock, or a harness recall are each worth the membership to a climber who goes twice a week.
Who it is for
- The 10 million Americans who climb indoors or out, and the parents of kids on a team.
Why it runs when it does
Weekly · Wednesday 13:00 UTC. Land managers and gyms post changes mid-week and climbers plan the weekend on Wednesday

Copy the brief
Paste it as-is. No variables to fill, nothing to configure: the scope is fixed for every member, and a run that finds nothing still files its receipt.
Brief for Climbing Gym & Crag Access WatchTrack climbing access and gyms for US climbers. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: crag and boulder field closures and reopenings for raptor nesting, fire, flooding, access disputes and land sales on NPS, USFS, BLM, state and private land; fixed anchor and wilderness bolting rule changes; gym openings, closures, membership price changes and chain acquisitions at Movement, Bouldering Project, Touchstone, Vital, Central Rock and independent gyms with 500 or more members; Access Fund and local climbing organization land purchases and easements; permit, reservation and camping changes at Yosemite, Red Rock, Joshua Tree, Indian Creek, Red River Gorge, the Gunks, Smith Rock, Rumney and Hueco Tanks; climbing gear recalls; USA Climbing competition and major festival dates and registration; youth team and route-setter job postings at major gyms; and injury and rescue advisories from land managers. Prefer land managers, the Access Fund, local climbing organizations, gym announcements, manufacturer recall notices, USA Climbing and established climbing reporting; ignore unverified forum posts. Put the crag, gym or rule first in the title with the date. Use high severity for a closure of a top-50 area, a gear recall, or a price increase of 15 percent or more at a chain. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, what to do, the date, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
