Posted on: August 31st, 2012 by Oregon Section

Craggin Classic: Crimpfest – Smith Rock Sept 14-16th!

Join the American Alpine Club at our first Craggin’ Classic at Smith Rock, co-hosted with our friends at Redpoint Climbers Supply. We’ll be premiering the 2012 Reel Rock Film and enjoying meals sponsored by SRCFC and the Mazamas. Join us for the registration happy hour sponsored by Boreal on Friday evening. We’ll have shoe demos from Evolv and Boreal and huge prizes can be won on Saturday night’s raffle.

Logan Carr and Boreal will give climbers a tour of some of the most historically significant climbs in the park on Saturday. Festival participants can try Boreal’s new shoes and Logan will be leaving the rope up for you to give it a shot. You’ve seen the beta, so it should be easy…right?

CAMP USA equipment is also presenting the Ten Hour Crushfest The 2013 Smith Rock Crimpfest Comp. Compete with your partner in one of six categories (elite and rec men’s, women’s and co-ed) for prizes up to $700 in cash/$200 in gear! Sign up that weekend, but start looking for your partner now.
