Accessing the backcountry one step at a time
The Federation of Mountain Clubs of British Columbia (FMCBC) is the only province-wide umbrella organization dedicated to protecting and maintaining access to BC’s backcountry. Since 1972, we have represented the interests of outdoor clubs from every corner of the province
and have provided a united voice on issues related to non-motorized backcountry recreation.
