  • Kentucky is a beautiful state, but Red River Gorge stands out above the rest. Huge sandstone cliffs and luscious green forest make it a place to explore whether your a rock climber, a hiker, or a camper. We headed out for a birthday excursion on Mr. Roades' birthday and it was an amazing experience.
    For more info and photos of the trip check out the blog post at: www.roadesonthe...

    Happy Birthday Man! Looks like it was great time to get out what a perfect sunset. Too bad for all that noise.. Earplugs are a gift at times like that. Hope to see you guys again. Great adventure food..Pizza!!

      +Shane Coffey Thanks! Never heard such a bird symphony in my life! I got really familiar with the complexities of the whippoorwill call. And yeah, Miiiiigueeeel's Piiiiiiizzaaaa! Cool place. Rock climbers camp out back of the restaurant.

      +State Parkers Thank you! Trail slippers are going to be the next big thing! Lightweight, cheap, and absolutely devoid of traction. Haha.

    We love going to Natural Bridge. You've inspired my wife and me. We are both off today. Going to drive to Slade, Ky. today and have pizza at Miguel's Pizza.

    Happy birthday. Great vid...except...you forgot my favorite part of your videos. The iconic "Roades on the road" in two part harmony...lol I really do like that it's one of the things that make your videos pop.

      +Robert Young Ahh, don't fret! The intro bit isn't gone! It will return! Glad to hear someone likes some of our cheesiness, haha. Thanks for the birthday wishes and thanks for watching!

    Adam your too close to the edge. You, at very least could loose a shoe. Your videos are so much fun. Thank you. A very Happy Birthday to you Adam

      +Monica Jones Thank you Monica! Surprised I've never lost a shoe. Though I have almost fallen down a waterfall. Glad you enjoy the videos!

    when did you all take this trip? The gorge can be popular certain times of the year, and this is a great spot to get.

    • @roadesontheroad
      @roadesontheroad  7 років тому +1

      This was in early May. There were several cars in the parking lot and we passed a few people set up before we found this spot. Looked like there were more potential spots further down the trail. I definitely couldn't complain with where we landed.

  • @mossybark8753
    @mossybark8753 9 років тому

    wow what a fantastic view and when you say Adam don't get to close to the edge and he sits right on the edge lol
    You'll just have to get longer legs for christma's, I can see them now hung on the tree lol

    • @roadesontheroad

      +Mossy Bark If only Santa had a little leg workshop! It would certainly make some of our trips a bit easier!

    There have so many accidents at this place, man that was dangerous sitting on that cliff. Please be careful. Wow

    • @roadesontheroad
      @roadesontheroad  7 років тому

      A lot of those accidents happen to people from Ohio as well... which is where I'm originally from. I try to take calculated risks, but I'm glad I didn't end up on the news.

    How do I get to this camping spot? Looks awesome? how far from parking

    • @roadesontheroad
      @roadesontheroad  7 років тому

      The parking lot is not too far from Slade, KY. It's about 1.5 milles out on the Auxier Ridge Trail. Pretty moderate trail with a spectacular payoff.

    What did Adam get for his birthday, except the kiss? ;)

    • @roadesontheroad
      @roadesontheroad  7 років тому

      A whippoorwill screaming through the whole night!

    • @Piotrek1985
      @Piotrek1985 7 років тому

      My girl sleeps with earplugs when it's too loud. I can't stand having those in my ears but maybe that's a solution for Adam ;)

    • @choahjinhuay
      @choahjinhuay 8 років тому

      We went over labor day. It was in the 90's then. And there were those little black flies everywhere. -_-
