Secret Garden

Kentucky > Red River Gorge > Miller Fork Recreatio…

Description

This area has a great variety of routes in the 5.8 to 5.11 range. Most of the routes are more vertical in nature and climb solid rock.

This crag is mostly South facing and gets sun most of the day. However in the late afternoon Everything between Linear Regression and the 911 Truther wall goes into shade. With a short easy approach this crag will sure to be busy on nice weekends.

Getting There

From the Main Miller fork parking lot find a trail that goes up the hill behind the large black oil tanks. At the top of the trail you will hit the cliff below Linear regression. Approach time is about 5 minutes.
