This book has everything! Camping, supply stores, every route on every wall, and even the best place to find pizza!

...if you're traveling to the Red to go climbing. The photos are clear, the maps are accurate, and the descriptions are spot-on.

I just bought this in preparation for my first trip to Red River Gorge, and since I haven't climbed there yet, my review is necessarily limited. However, this guidebook is very well organized, printed on glossy paper, and has extremely good photographs throughout. The production quality alone makes it the best guidebook I have in my collection. Information about the climbs is thorough and has allowed me to plan my upcoming trip to get the most bang for the buck.

Simple--this is the best guide available for RRG climbing. A little expensive, but worth it. Durable cover and pages (cover also functions as bookmark). Sectioned off well. Good maps and driving/approach directions. Accurate for # of bolts and length of climbs (not sure why some climbing books don't include these two very important pieces of info). Tick list by trad/sport and grade is a great feature, although a few climbs in Muir Valley are missing in the 2ed.

This is an amazing guide. It is so easy to find approaches with this guide and all the directions are from Miguel's. Star system is spot on all the classics are 4 and 5 stars. Great for all skill levels really easy to use. And it even tells you when are the best times to climb at certain walls. Great for planning successful days of climbing.

The best climbing guide I have ever seen. I am very impressed by the addition of GPS coordinates for different walls.
