Directions to Lady Slipper - Global Village

USFS
This wall is in property owned by USFS. Be respectful.
Drive 4.8 miles from the Junior Williamson Rest Area (toward Miguel's) on KY 11 and stop at a large grassy area which has an occasional muddy pulloff on the right. If you drive to where the rock quarry road heads uphill to your left then you have driven too far. Park and head across the road to a trailhead. When the trail branches off to the right (near a boulder), follow it for ahwile past a couple of ravines. Hike uphill past the second ravine to the main arete of the wall.

unless you have a very young/agile puppy that is an excellent scrambler, it may be best to leave the dog at home. one of my partners forgot about all the steep parts in the trail and ended up having to carry his older dog through several places.
