Golden Touch (5.13b) RRG

Alan Smith,22, sends Golden Touch (5.13b), Red River Gorge, Kentucky. This striking line is located at the notorious Motherlode in the Southern Region of the gorge. Running 45 feet up a beautiful gold streak in the sandstone wall, the route challenges all who climb it with a creditcard crimp, nasty slopers, and red river pockets while the pump clock is ticking. Smith cruised this difficult overhung line this past April.
