Directions to Lady Slipper - Global Village

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.

Wall Sun: Unknown

The hike in is incredible!

Are there any routes to the left of Eureka?

Anonymous said on October 24th, 2007

Rumors...

I agree...I feel like ewoks are going to jump out, on the awesome fern entrance.

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.

Trying out my GPS receiver...parking is at N 37 45.053, W 083 39.845, and the crag (Eureka) is N 37 45.109, W 083 39.451

Anyone know what the bolted arête climb to the left of Eureka about 75' is?

Anonymous said on December 4th, 2012

really good 12a or so

Anonymous said on December 4th, 2012

How shiny are those bolts out of curiosity?

amarius said on October 3rd, 2016

Dustonian posted on mountainproject.com that the climb around the corner and left from Eureka is 75 ft, 8 bolt 5.12- named "Nailbiter"

Aggressive ground bee nest at first creek crossing with handline as of 19oct17. Friend got lit up about 20 times.

Anonymous said on May 9th, 2018

Does anyone know if the ground bees on the approach trail are still around?

Real target systems are seldom epistemically isomorphic to axiomatic-deductive models/systems.

Anonymous said on March 28th, 2020

Is this area still open during the covid-19 outbreak?

Anonymous said on March 28th, 2020

Seriously? Stay home.

AidClimber said on March 29th, 2020

Based on the full parking lot of out of state plates I saw yesterday, I don't think anyone is too worried about spreading this to Slade.

Die millennial, die.

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).
