Red Byrd Arch trip Via Ridgetop ...12-20-08 trip report
A Creek Runs through it

On December 17, 2004 I went in search of Timmon's (Timmons?) Arch in the Clifty Wilderness area of Red River Gorge. In spite of a creek crossing and a bushwhack through a thicket of Rhododendron up a ridge, I had early success. I then sought Adena Arch with similar results.
