Description:
Smith Rock became world famous in the mid-1980s as a rock climbing destination and offers routes for beginning to expert climbers. Climbing is very technical and dangerous, and proper instruction is critical. Several guide services operate in the park. Guidebooks with information about climbing can be purchased at local shops. Rock climbers enjoy their sport year round, but the busiest seasons are spring and fall. Routes are found throughout the park, but the main concentration is ¼ mile downstream from the footbridge. If you make it over to Monkey Face, you might see people climbing the easiest route on the south face, which was first climbed in 1960. Over on the east face is Just Do It, Smith’s hardest route. It was first climbed in 1992 and was the first 514c. rated route in the United States
