Horn

5.11d, Sport, 50 ft (15 m),  Avg: 2.7 from 40 votes
FA: Chris Martin, 1997
Kentucky > Red River Gorge > Pendergrass-Mur… > Bob Marley

Description

Harder than it looks. The holds at the bottom are just small enough to be tempted to call this route 11d. Pretty cool rest 2/3 of the way up (see picture).

Location

The next line after you pass Skinny Love. Furthest left line in the cave proper. 

Protection

5 fixed draws to fixed carabiners at the anchor.

[Hide Comment] Great route and a lot of fun. Ellington Guide has it at .11d, might be a little soft when equipped with pre-hung draws. Oct 21, 2012
