Mike_G Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Climb: Smith Rock-laps on several routes Date of Climb: 4/27/2006 Trip Report: A meager few of us Smith locals have been "bouldering" the past couple of weeks at ye olde pile of tuff in preparation for the upcoming Spring Thing. We've hauled several metric tons of small boulders from a nearby field to the bridge, then from the bridge downstream to piles along the river, then from these piles up to the base of the cliffs, where this weekend they will be used to construct belay stations and rock terraces to prevent terra firma from not being so firma. Come out this weekend and enjoy the company of your fellow Smith climbers from all over the West as we build rock walls and perform other feats of improvement. Just show up on this Sat, May 6th, and be ready for hard work, good food, cheap (or free) gear, and memories to last until next year. Good karma awarded freely, as well. Work starts at 8am on Saturday and last until about 2pm. We provide water, chow, sunscreen, gloves, leadership, and a heckuva lotta rocks already moved to the bases of cliffs. At about 2 o'clock, the sponsor booths, slackline, and silent auction begin up at the barn. At about 6pm, all volunteers get a free taco dinner and drinks, followed by a slideshow, gear raffle and lively auction. See you there! pm me for more info, if needed.
