      Comments about Red River Gorge Rock Climbs - North - Volume 1:

      This book has it all for climbing in the Red. Its a step up from all other guide books and sets the new standard. Well organized, excellent colored pictures and maps with driving, walking approach and GPS decimal degrees. This book will tell you everything from directions, camping, restaurants, history, star ratings 1-5 and even how much sunlight each wall gets throughout the day. Theres a convenient index in the back telling you the page number with route ratings your looking for and a few blank pages for Notes. This book also tells you if the climbing area is a "kid friendly cliff". meaning the approach is relatively close to the car and offers a flat/safe base for the climbing route minimizing the possibly of a momentarily unattended child to fall off large cliffs. The climbing routes are displayed for sport and traditional climbing with very little bouldering routes.
