| cluck | Great Smith Adventure  Date Climbed: Mar 28, 2009 | |
| The most adventure you can have at Smith! I can confirm Corvallis's suggestion that you unrope at the top of Pitch 2 and walk over to the anchors at the North end of The Mudpile. From those anchors, you can protect the downclimb, traverse, and moves all the way to the top of Mini Half Dome with a 60M rope. We goofed up the descent and rapped down the east face instead of the west face. Fortunately, our double 60M ropes landed us safely (just barely) near the start of the Cave Route. After re-reading the route description, it sounds like we were supposed to rap down the other side (facing Koala rock). Oh well. | |

| Karl Helser | Third time... Date Climbed: Oct 25, 2008 | |
| The second time I lead the first six pitches before being chased off Brogan Spire by lightning. Last Saturday three of up completed all 8-pitches in about 6-hours. The crux of the whole climb are probably the first few bolts on pitch #1, and the couple of moves to get up around the right side of The Tail on pitch #7. | |

| Great climb. Took about 3.5 hours for the four of us. Lots of variety. | |
