anyone want to go to smith this week?

burrr... (teeth chattering)

would love to link up during spring. im not very capable of lead climbing anything greater than like a 5.7, 5.8a maybe.......but i can follow!

For sure. You should come up here too. There are lots of killer 5.8 and 5.9 trad routes that are perfect for getting your "lead" feet wet(er). Smith is cool, but I think there are better places in the NW. Leavenworth, Tieton, Mt. Stewart, Squamish, etc. The only place I've climbed in OR other then Smith is Trout Creek. And next time I go there I'm jumping the mesa's! This wall is only about 50-55 meters to the top, but there are way bigger around there. Check it out.

that looks like a super sick place. I am a little familiar with smith and I am jones'n and i want to get out of the rain...

its good for single and duel pitch trad routes. Its close to bend too.

keep posting that climbing porn and you'll have me moving out there next. i'll need a new home in a year or 2 anyway, and any place that has jumping, climbing, and mountains has my vote...
