For someone who died so young, Robin Smith left behind an incredible legacy of climbs. In a few short years he produced many classic routes that have stood the test of time to earn almost mythical status. This list also covers his more obscure first ascents that any connoisseur of his devious route finding abilities will no doubt appreciate.
