TEXAS MOUNTAINEERS IDENTITY
The Texas Mountaineers is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the promotion of climbing activities, education and stewardship in the North Texas area. The club was originally formed in 1978 as an extension of the Dallas Sierra Club, Dallas Rock Climbing Section (DRCS). In 1988, the DRCS became the Texas Mountaineers, establishing itself as an independent organization from the Sierra Club during a period of significant growth in membership. They are now a diverse group of nearly 200 climbing enthusiasts.
