Smith - East Coast off the couch

Abe rolled into town on Wednesday of last week.  I took Thursday and Friday off from work so we could go get our play ON.  Day one was penciled in as Smith Rocks.  We got our gear together in the morning and headed out to Smith where we enjoyed a nice full day of climbing while trying to avoid the sun.

After hibernating from climbing for a while, Abe roped in and proceeded to crush it!  Smith has a distinct heady and crimpy style that can often be a bit of an acquired taste but Abe was right at home pulling on knobs and pebbles.

It was a great day out and it was day 1 of 4 days of playing....we stopped at the Terrebonne Depot for an after climb beer where we drank in the post-climb glow with some Central Oregon hop nectar.

Not a bad introduction to Central Oregon for my east coast homie....Thx to Abe for the pix!
