Summer 2025

Oregon CHoss Challenge

This summer, we're getting weird, and you're invited!

Since the 1950's, legends like Eugene Dodd, Jeff Thomas, Jim Anglin, Bob + Tom Bauman, Tyler Adams, Brad Englund, and many others have pioneered the fascination of seeking out Oregon's hidden towers / spires.

We will be posting new routes with details to the location of the prizes via this page throughout the summer months. To participate, you must fill out the waiver.

Objective #1

Alright, it's go time!

To claim the first $100 voucher, we are sending you off into the Menagerie Wilderness. Located just outside of Sweet Home, this paradise has MANY beautiful choss towers.

Rooster Rock has a handful of bolted routes. Take the easy way + opt for the two pitch 5.5 climb, or get a tad spicier and opt for Tyler Adam's "Callus SE Face" route which is rated at three pitches of 5.7 climbing.

To claim, you must take a picture on top of the summit with the date + time, email info@nwalpine.com, + have a blast in the process!
