Land Access Inquiry Form – ACMG | Association of Canadian Mountain Guides

Such access must balance recreational use, conservation, cultural values, and safety considerations, while ensuring that guiding contributes positively to the broader community.

The ACMG is committed to:

Collaborating with governments, land managers, Indigenous communities, and other stakeholders to develop fair access systems.
Promoting policies that recognize the professional standards of ACMG certification.
Supporting environmental stewardship and reconciliation through responsible guiding practices.
Advocating for certainty in permitting and tenure systems so that guides can plan, invest, and sustain their businesses.
