Pebble Beach
About Pebble Beach:
|
Excellent place to climb for intermediate trad and sport routes. The area also boasts one of the hardest trad routes east of the Mississippi, "Welcome to Ole Kentucky" (5.13a). A pumpy uphill approach will bring you to the pinnacle with the route "The Arrowhead". Some top rope set-ups can be found via a bushwack to the top of the cliff. DIRECTIONS: Go North on 77 through the Nada Tunnel and past the Iron Bridge, then turn left onto 1067 and go 3 miles. Park in front of a bridge on the left side of the road. The trail starts on the other side of the road and goes up a steep hill.
