What's in Kentucky?? Bourbon, Horses, and some AMAZING Climbing!



Tanya and I have been climbing partners for awhile now.....I am sure many people that we have met along the way are not really sure if we climb, or if we just goof off -- often resulting in some awkward situations........



Like this one for example, we had been at the campground for less than hour before Tanya got a citation for drinking in public....How can Kentucky have dry counties with all that bourbon and beer????



But we do actually do some climbing on these trips. It had been years since Tanya had been to the Red River Gorge, and it has been on my tick list for a long time. There is both trad and sport climbing there and we did a little a both.  At one of the larger crags, the routes were labeled which made things really easy!


Kentucky felt like a jungle to me.  I kept waiting for the monkeys to swing down from the trees, but they never did!!  Tons and tons of poison ivy, but we did our best from making contact.

 
I got a little motivated at the end and acutally led a couple of pitches!  Guess I still got in me!!  Tanya, thanks again for another awesome adventure!!  Looking forward to the next one.....maybe Cuba???  Enjoy the slideshow!
