I thought that this would be cross-posted over here already, but it doesn't look like it. On the 15th of January Redpoint Climbers Supply in Terrebonne, Oregon, right outside of Smith Rock was broken into and cleaned out.

My climbing partner and I climbed that route last Sunday.

Before I rant about it, I would like to hear some other peoples' opinions on it. Have any of you done it? What are your thoughts on it?

Can you guys tell me more about climbing in Kelowna? How it it for sport climbing?

I’m planning a rock climbing trip for March 13 (Friday) – March 15 (Sunday). We would be leaving from Vancouver, BC. My first choice is Skaha, BC. I have never been there before. Some of my friends have in years past, but I don’t know yet if they can come. There is so much that I do not know regardi...
