Jackson Hole, Wyo.-Organizers of the Teton Boulder Project have received a $75,000 grant from the Teton County Recreation District. The money will go to help build an artificial bouldering park at the base of Snow King Mountain.

“It’s a great shot in the arm for our fundraising efforts,” project coordinator Christian Beckwith said in a statement.

To date, boulder park organizers have raised about $135,000 of a projected $300,000 goal, and groundbreaking is expected to begin this summer.
