looking for a gps map of red river gorge

Post by kalabula »

I am new to this sport and am heading south for the first time by myslef (well me and my wife) and was wondering if anyone knew of a red river gorge gps map I could download of the web to my mapsource with crags on it.

Any help would be great.

or maybe even just waypoints to crags. I actually have the us topo for mapsource but it doesnt have any climbing spots on it.

All the way points are in the online guide, I think.

just print out the directions for the crags you want to go to... the directions are great and you'll probably be fine without the gps.

What are you trying to climb trad? Is something wrong with you? Just follow teh circus train man.
Ain't no fancy gps but this helps me find the hidden chosspiles sometimes- http://www.outragegis.com/gorge/crags/
(and just for the record, Indian Creek is NOT where this map claims..)
The only escape is up.

thats weird, works for me- pasted straight off the bookmark toolbar. You can track it down via google too, with "Red River Climbing Map" Click the outragegis page (4 down) and then on 'interactive climbing map' - comes in handy for those BW3's.

I have most of the crags in a point shapefile (GIS data format), current as of the second edition guidebook (used for guidebook maps). I would be happy to add x,y coordinates and send to you in a text file format. PM me if this would be helpful to you though keep in mind they aren't GPS locations.
