Deep Creek is a steep sport area just west of Spokane in Riverside State Park. Development of the area began in the mid-1990s. Unlike the other primary crags in the region, Deep Creek climbing is on basalt entablature. The climbs are up to 85 feet long and are generally featured, but pumpy. Most of the climbing is in the upper grades, with a high concentration of 5.12 and 5.13 routes.
