Red River Gorge Madness

July 3, 2012

Seventeen-year-old Dylan Banks has climbed all the routes in the Red River Gorge’s ultra-steep Madness Cave in a single day without a single fall.  Banks climbed Transworld Depravity 5.14a, Omaha Beach 5.14a, Last of the Bohicans 5.13d, Pushing Up Daisies 5.13d, The Madness 5.13c and Forty Ounces of Justice 5.13a, all routes which are at least 30 m long.

Just as impressive is that Banks sent these routes in late June, a time that is notoriously hot and humid for the Red.
