Holy History Batman!
- Familiarity:I've put it through the wringer
This guide is one of the best in the nation. For such a premier locale - Smith Rock State Park - the birth place of american sport climbing and the nations first 5.14 - this guide gives you all the history and MORE!
I'm sort of a guidebook collector and afficionado - and one of my favorite things about this guide is how Watts includes a very in depth and descriptive history of the area, why the bolts are spaced the way they are, who was there first and who is still there putting up new classic routes each year.
This guide will allow you to find the niche spots to climb when the crowds swarm the park!
Guidebook writing is an art, and Watts is a Da Vinci amongst them.
