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, with almost 2000 established routes, from traditionally protected cracks to some of the hardest sport climbs in America. This book, Volume 2 of a two-volume series, covers 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 Muir Valley, The PMRP, and the Motherlode and Chocolate Factory. The Southern Region includes most of the popular sport crags and has some of the hardest climbs in the country.
