Smith Rock


Smith Rock State Park in Central Oregon is an amazing place, not just for the climbing, but also for the scenery and the wildlife. It is a world-class sport climbing destination, so it often is hopelessly overrun. However, if you go to the right spots in the park at the right time, you can still manage to climb essentially by yourself. (No, I won't tell you when to go where to achieve this.)
Here is my log of the climbs I have done there since 2000. Ship Rock, the Crooked River, and Smith Rock Group seen from the parking lot
