Red River Gorge North Guidebook
The Red River Gorge in eastern Kentucky is one of the best rock-climbing areas in the world. Its solid, well-featured sandstone makes for steep, spectacular climbing, from traditionally protected cracks to some of the hardest sport climbs in America. This digital guide for iOS or Android devices covers over 1500 of the best climbs in the southern half of the Red River Gorge, i.e those cliffs that lie south of Miguel's Pizza and the Mountain Parkway, including those in Roadside, Torrent Falls, Lady Slipper, Muir Valley, The PMRP, and The Motherlode. The Southern Region includes most of the popular sport crags and has some of the hardest climbs in the country.
