Road to the Southern Region is Closed
It's about a 10 mile detour to go through Beattyville on rather windy roads. Looking at google maps doesn't suggest any other roads and they have Bald Fork and Fixer on there so its pretty complete. Going the creek would be faster if you could do it although it could tear up a car a bit, my outback got a little beaten and it has more clearance than most cars. trucks will be fine.

Thanks pawilkes. Is Bald Fork and Fixer "Going the creek?" I apologize but I'm not that familiar with the lingo. I do see those on the map so we could probably do that. I was down there once so I'm a little familiar with the area but not sure on that one. We're in a Rav4 so I do have a bit more than a car too.
Thanks
Thanks
Bald Fork is the "normal" road down to the load. Fixer is the way to Solar Collector that you can continue down through some creeks to get to the rest of the PMRP/Southern region. 1036 is a pretty small road (think the road to muir) and is really curvy. I think it would be faster going into Stanton.

Better yet - stay on 75s past Lexington and then jump on 52 at Richmond. Think of Bald rock road and Fixer road at the same road - they change names at the creek. You cross the creek in a few spots and then drive right down the middle of it - hence the name bald rock road - I would think it would be pretty tricky in a car/sedan.

the road is closed for about 200 yards right around the driveway to the church. they have detour signs in Beattyville. basically you turn right on to 52, go over a bridge and turn right onto 1144 (?) were there is an old sandstone church on the corner. take 1144 until it ends then hang a right on 52 and go ~1/2 mile to Bald Rock road. you don't have to go on 1144 but it makes the drive a bit shorter.
