Description
This is a sunny area close to Sacred Ruins and Three Stooges. This area is on the cliff above those two areas and offers some amazing climbs and very unique features as well as some sweet views over the valley. I've done my best to accurately name climbs based on what's listed on redriverclimbing.com/kyboul…, however if you see any misinformation or know the names of any climbs please let me know and I'll update them!
Getting There
The best way to get to this area is to route to the parking pin found at foxtownboulders.com/map. ;
Upper Parking Lot: 37.491008249239385, -83.95376787102877
Lower Parking Lot: 37.48450186533786, -83.9580864177813
The parkings lots are called Foxtown lower parking, and Foxtown upper parking. From 89 turn on to Lime Kiln Ridge Rd, take the right fork. Continue down the dirt/gravel road for two miles or so. You will come up to the first pull off, if you don't have 4 wheel drive park here and hike in. If you have 4 wheel drive continue down the service road until it ends into a cul de sac type thing. Park here and enjoy quick access to the boulders!
To Access The Crpyt walk back down towards the road from the upper lot and turn right. Continue for several minutes until the road turns right (and is closed). On the left you will see a sign for Sacred Ruins. Follow this path past the Three Stooges area. The path continues on and begins to hug the cliff line. Eventually the cliff line has a break in it on the right, go up this hill and on the left you'll see the first several problems. Continue up and left and you'll see a sign for the crypt that denotes the main area.
