The Colorado Mountain Club (CMC), formed in 1912,〔Charles Ernest Fay, et al., ''A Century of American Alpinism'', (The American Alpine Club, 2002)]〕 is a nonprofit, 501 (c)(3) outdoor education organization based in Golden, Colorado that gathers and disseminates information regarding Colorado's mountains in the areas of art, science, literature and recreation. The club advocates for the preservation of the alpine regions, and was instrumental in the creation of Rocky Mountain National Park.〔National Park Service, ''Rocky Mountain Administrative History, Chapter II, Enos Mills And The Creation Of The Park'', ()〕 The CMC has its own press with over 30 published titles, and has continuously published ''Trail & Timberline'' magazine since 1918. ==History== From 25 charter members in 1912, the club rapidly grew to 200 members barely a year later, when the CMC became a nonprofit corporation. Charter members included such notable historic figures as Enos Mills, Roger Toll, and Carl Blaurock.〔Hugh E. Kingery, ''The Colorado Mountain Club: The First Seventy-Five Years of a Highly Individual Corporation, 1912 - 1987'',(Cordillera Press, 1988) ISBN 0-917895-25-8]〕 In 1974, the club purchased its first permanent home in Denver, Colorado. In 1993, the CMC partnered with the American Alpine Club to found the American Mountaineering Center in Golden, Colorado.〔Cameron Burns, ''Colorado Climbs Upward With Group's Relocation Famed Mountaineering Club Is Leaving New York City And Bringing Huge Library'', (The Denver Post, December 12, 1992), ()〕 The building houses the largest mountaineering library in the world, as well as a state-of-the-art museum, which opened in February, 2008, and is named for famed mountaineer Henry Bradford Washburn, Jr.
