Everitt and Parker

Bestest good friends

More Smith

Steelhead Falls: can you see Wyatt touching the water?
Can you see Dee's backflip?







So beautiful




After the hike at Smith rock, this 0.5 mile hike to the falls seemed a bit daunting





Where is Cate? Oh there she is, of course, inside the tree














I was a little hungry at the end of the day :) can you tell?







Wyatt and I were tired of driving










Belaying Michael










The great surveyer











Deschutes river at the base of Smith

Smith Rock

Steelhead Falls, just outside of Terrebone we decided to cool off in the Deschutes river. The water was icy cold but Wyatt and I found a 20 foot cliff to motivate us to jump in.


Michael, Christy and Cate

Backside of Smith, we climbed here in the morning



Cate giving Monkey face a kiss, with Mt. Jefferson in the background





we hiked to the top of the Smith rock to get to the backside. We were hoping to find easier routes to warm up but it was pretty busy and the rock climbers were in full force, enjoying the beautiful weather





You can see the three sisters peaks and Black Butte in the background




overlooking the Deschutes River











Morning Glory






































Friday and Saturday nights free campsite because we were on BLM land, the coyotes were busy both nights
























































Everitt's first camping trip :)
