Where did you go? Which routes did you get on? Did you meet Roger's of Rocky Top Retreat? Did you have breakfast at the Cathedral Cafe?
IF that was your first trip there, give it another chance. I live in Indy yet I've climbed at the New twice as much as I've climbed at the Red. You must be missing something!

Summersville is the closest you can get to comparing the New with the Red. I guess it's just personal preference -- some people like overhanging routes and some people like technical stuff.
I still say give it another chance.... climb there when the weather's more favorable.... if you ask me, the real jewels of the New are at Endless, Beauty, Bubba, etc (although I did think Junkyard sucks).
