COVID-19 Climbing Guidelines: The Red River Gorge in the Daniel Boone National Forest, Muir Valley, and all RRGCC-owned property - which includes Miller Fork Recreational Preserve, Bald Rock Recreational Preserve, and Pendergrass-Murray Recreational Preserve - request that you follow the guidelines outlined on each website if you choose to climb during this time. See links above for more details about each climbing area.
There's a mudslide and a tree missing from the normal finish. But luckily there's tat on two trees to the right. Just think of a it as adventure climbing.
Underrated! Decent mix of 5.7 jams, manageable OW, and faceholds until about halfway when it became a tight chimney that we all had trouble with. Had to really work through that section, just annihilating the belayer with dirt and sand. Anchors before the mudslide would be ideal but keep going two moves up to the right and there's a tree with webbing. Used gear up to a BD 6.
Route details are copyright Ray Ellington, John Bronaugh, and other Red River Gorge climbers. Climbing is an inherently dangerous sport. The information in this guidebook is subject to error and should supplement never replace common sense and caution, competent guidance and instruction, and actually being outside. One should be especially cautious on matters of route length, descent type, and number of bolts (especially since such things do change occasionally).
