Title: Scenic Blue Sky View Between Smith Rock Mountain Rugged Cliffs

I took this photograph of the scenic rugged cliffs of Smith Rock State Park outside the picturesque Bend Oregon. This colorful blue sky and the snow covered mountain view was looking down through the wilderness canyon between the rugged cliffs and desert foliage. The cliffs are so tall you can hardly see the climbers and the hikers on the right side of this photograph.

Smith Rock State Park was obtained between 1960 and 1975 by purchase and gifts of land from the city of Redmond and Harry and Diane Kem. Many believe that Smith Rock is named in honor of John Smith a Linn County lawman or Pvt. Volk Smith a soldier who fell to his death in the park during a battle with the Northern Paiute in 1863. The Debate Continues...

If you enjoy scenic views of deep river canyons or rock climbing, Smith Rock State Park is the place for you. There are several thousand climbs in the park. More than a thousand are bolted routes. There are miles of hiking and mountain biking trails where you might see golden eagles, prairie falcons, mule deer, river otter and beaver.
