What we do
Spring Thing
Smith Rock Spring Thing is an annual park clean up event held at Smith Rock State Park. Since starting in 1993 it is the largest single day climber led park clean-up event in the United States. Since 1993 our volunteers have put in over 30,000 hours of work to conserve and preserve Smith Rock.
Trail Days
Trail Days are smaller and more focused trail maintenance events that happen throughout the year and in reaction to weather events.
Community Engagement
The Smith Rock Group understands the immense significance of community . Our commitment to climbing community engagement goes beyond merely organizing events and competitions. We strive to create an inclusive environment that welcomes climbers of all skill levels, ages, and backgrounds.
