Central Oregon Rock

Purchase this book

When most climbers think of Bend, OR, they think of Smith Rock — but as local Bend climbers know, there’s much more. This book covers the “other” Central Oregon crags, some you may have heard of, some revealed here for the first time. Included is Trout Creek, one of the country’s best single-pitch crack-climbing crags — think Indian Creek without the sand. Also featured are many sport crags, adventurous multi-pitch routes, and spectacular freestanding spires. With over 500 climbs under two hours from Bend, and year-round climbing, you might even forget to climb at Smith Rock.
