Five Ten® Youth Team Member Jesper Hilts tells us about climbing at Red Rocks and Smith Rock.

The crack is called Rising Expectations 11d which was a super interesting event in my climbing. I didn't end up doing the route due to my lame foot work and time, but I think I was even more excited to take a 20 plus foot fall on a little stopper. That alone was a success.

Here are some photos that I have collected over the past few months from one of my climbing partners who is also an amazing climbing photographer. Her name is Tara Reynvaan. I'm super lucky to have her as a partner. Some of the pics are from Red Rocks and some are from Smith Rock.
