One important part of Roca Verde is to establish a bolt fund to help local climbers equip and re-equip routes throughout the Roca Verde region. So a percentage of the money from this book will go towards a bolt fund to help equip and re-equip routes in the areas covered by this guide.

In general the bolts and belays in these regions are very, very good, using stainless bolts and anchors with a karabiner that are clip and go. Fantastic though this is for climbers this means that every route costs a lot to equip – up to £50 a time – so it’s important that we try to raise money to help the equippers.
If you want to apply for bolts and belays to equip routes in and around the Cordillera Cantábrica please mail us at rocaverdeclimbing@gmail.com
