Opis:
Watch our full adventures from our trip to Oregon. We climbed at historic Smith Rock State Park, cliff jumped at Crater Lake National Park, and dived in the freezing water of Tamolitch blue pool!

Located in the high desert of Central Oregon, Smith Rock holds a special place in the history of climbing. Starting in the 70s, bolting took hold in the State Park, but the golden era of Smith Rock was in the 80s when legends like Alan Watts put up mega five star lines almost everyday. Since then the cliffs of Smith Rock remain an epicenter for American sport climbing. Recent history was made when Olympic climber Adam Ondra flashed the route 'Just Do It' 5.14c. More history is sure to be made as young stars like Drew Ruana have potential 5.15 projects in the canyon.
