Access Issue: Land Owned by Muir Valley Nature Preserve
Details
Officially known as Muir Valley Nature Preserve, Muir Valley is one of Red River Gorge's crown jewels. Originally the area was privately owned by Rick and Liz Weber, but in March 2015 the Webers gifted the land to the non-profit Friends of Muir Valley (FOMV), a 501(c)3 organization. FOMV is now 100% responsible for the ownership, in addition to funding and up-keeping the property.
The valley is home to more than 30 separate climbing walls, all open to climbers at no charge, a $15 fee is charged per car for parking to offset maintenance costs.
Some important rules must be followed to ensure future access and enjoyment by all. A complete list can be found at muirvalley.org/tabs/#pills-1 , but the most important are listed below:

Description
This is a great beginners 5.10 trad route. Lots of great pro and tons of jugs to place it from.
Just to the right of Dynabolt Gold, look for a hand crack about midway up the route. Make some difficult moves to start the route to some easy climbing into a large hole. Clip the bolts at the roof of the hole. Be sure to extend the lower bolt for drag. Pull the roof (crux) and get established into the crack above using large plated jugs. Follow the plated jugs around the crack to the anchors.
