After dropping Kris at the airport in Louisville early on
July 26, I drove to Red River Gorge east of Lexington for a dayhike. I really
needed the exercise. I’ve forgotten who recommended it to me, but I’ll have to
thank them later. It turned out to be a perfect place to ramble for a few hours
on rocky ridges among the 80 or so natural arches tucked away in the woods. I
picked up a short guide to trails and opted for the scenic loop to Courthouse
Rock, plus a few short walks to Whistling Arch, Angel Windows and Sky Bridge.
Wow.
