Pull a hard, reachy move off the ledge then continue punching through slopey edges and pockets to a decent rest. Quest up the last few bolts on a blanket of moss and lichen to a final dirty, flaring hand crack just before the anchors.

Climb the short hand crack that splits the dirty, lichen-covered face. Finish at the tree in the alcove above the crack. Rappel off the tree.

Route just right of Pool Boy.  Technical climbing on underclings and pockets.

This route is a really amazing line and great addition to the Deep End. Set off by itself to the left of the main wall, this route is well worth getting on.

Start on a cheater stack in the swamp and head up a couple bolts of steep jugs. This leads to the first bouldery crux that revolves around the only hold in about 6 feet of rock. Finagle an undercling or just go big to get to the break and a decent shake. Climb a couple more moves to gain an iron oxide crimp rail and get ready to huck a dyno to a sloper jug. Make a couple more long moves to get to the anchor.

This bouldery line is primarily two hard and long moves with a rest in between. Enjoy!

The route equipper suggested 13b and the line has only seen a couple ascents, although it seems the grade may be settling more around 13a.

Takes on the obvious prow left of pool boy and fluffer.  A funky mantle start leads to tough technical movement on the arete.  Take on tougher face climbing right of the arete or reach left around the arete to larger holds further away.  Be sure to straddle the arete near the end and take the no hands before moving right to the chains.

Vertical route awesome climbing on crimps and sidepulls

Walk out on the narrow ledge to the pile of cheater stones. Stick clip first bolt and go big for the horizontal break in the wall. Crank steep, fun moves through the roof that end all too soon as you enjoy cruiser terrain to the anchors slightly left of the line.

The belayer should clip into the fixed rope at the base and the climber should stay trammed in on the rope to get back to the ledge.

This overhanging route is surprisingly bouldery unlike it's classic neighbor "The Abyss".  If you can pull the difficult crux moves, than nothing up high should slow you down.  While this route isn't the King Line on the wall, it is still well worth a run, and many might consider it worth classic status.

Pull easy intro moves up the ledge and a small triangular feature.  Get psyched and enter the crux section, with some big pulls to and off of small pockets.  Recover above the crux and navigate the pumpy headwall above.  One more tricky move awaits before much easier climbing towards the anchors.

This recently developed route will soon be as popular as other RRG classic 12d's such as "Triple Sec", Jesus Wept" and "Stunning the Hog".  It is that classic.

Pull a few bouldery moves to get off the ground and established onto the face, traverse leftwards through sequential pockets and crimps to a rest below the roof.  Navigate the roof, which surprisingly is not as difficult as it appears and get established on the headwall above.  Fight the pump and race up steep ground that gets progressively easier towards the anchors.

Climb the blocky arête of the large boulder to the left of the cave housing "Tsunami," etc.

Probably pretty green, but an enjoyable romp nonetheless.

A pumpy climb that heads up from the right side of the ledge.

Climb up easy terrain for the first two bolts to a ledge. Relax for a bit before you take on the steepness above. Pull boulder moves on pockets and crimps for the next couple bolts. Get to the jug and relax. Finish with a long victory run on steep jugs to the chains.

Climb past the starting roof using a combination of underclings, decent crimps, and a small pocket; your height will probably determine how difficult this opening boulder problem is for you. Continue on easier ground to a good rest halfway up the route. Head into the overhanging second half and you will quickly meet the crux involving a sidepull, sloper, and some crimps. Pick your holds wisely and cruise to the anchors.

Shares the first bolt with Half Mast then veers right on glue-ins up the brief slab section to a secondary ledge. Cruise up the jug-covered face and pull into a small alcove at the top.

Climb a variety of holds to a tough clip at the 4th bolt. Continue up some more pumpy climbing to the top.

Climb up the green, dirty ramp to gain the corner. Follow the dirty crack system until it opens up at the top, between the two walls. Finish on the face to the right and lower from the chains on "Pool Boy."

The long climb that begins just right of the mungy crack on the right side of the crag.  Pumpy climbing on underclings and pockets leads to a tough redpoint crux guarding the chains.  Best warmup at the crag.

If you find yourself clipping the chains on this one, you might be one of the most psyched climbers in the Red River Gorge. Thin mossy hands leads to a rest before a burly but dry crux pulling a small roof on good hand jams, with one last surprise waiting for you at the anchors. Equipped by Max McLaughlin
