Portland Climber Injured At Smith Rock

 

 

 

TERREBONNE, OR -- Deschutes County Search and Rescue responded to Smith Rock State Park, Sunday afternoon, to help a climber injured in a 20-foot fall. The 31-year-old Portland woman was climbing with a belay, but when she lost her hold there was too much slack in the line. She hit the ground before the belay could stop her fall.

 

She was brought down the steep trail from Cocaine Gully in a wheeled litter and was later released to seek her own medical treatment.
