From the publisher:
Long before the first power drill arrived in the Red River Gorge, there was rock climbing. Bold locals explored the region's sculpted sandstone, finding soaring cracks, freestanding towers and utterly wild multi-pitch adventure routes hidden in the deep woods.
These fine climbs are still out there, offering a completely different experience than the over-chalked holds and hectic crowd scenes you find at the Red's popular sport crags. This book is your guide to that other world, the first of its kind.
Inside you'll find Wolverine's standard features—great action photography, helpful maps, grade distributions, approach tips, cell coverage, etc.—carefully vetted and thoughtfully delivered. The detailed route descriptions will help on the often wandering routes as you follow natural weaknesses, often to airy summits. If you need the Big Bros or brassies, the book will let you know without spoiling any surprises. Veteran trad climbers will love this book, but those new to the dark arts of gear placing will be well taken care of, too.
