Directions to Gladie Rock

This wall is in property owned by USFS. Be respectful.

Follow the directions to Staircase Wall until it intersects with the Sheltowee Trace Trail. Instead of taking a left as you would for Staircase Wall, go right. When you reach a large sinkhole, scramble up to the base of the cliff.

Better directions would be follow the directions above until you make the right on the Sheltowee. Make a creek crossing and then hike for a few more minutes until you pass above the limestone band. The trail actually passes close enough you can touch the limestone. Immediately after passing the limestone band look for a drainage on the left. Follow it up to the left side of the main prow.

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).
