Book excerpt: Southern Pisgah Rock and Ice takes you to several classic and obscure climbing destinations throughout Pisgah National Forest's Pisgah Ranger District. The climbs outlined comprise, what we contend, is one of the most diverse climbing regions in Eastern America. In Southern Pisgah, you will find an endless concentration of moderate multi-pitch options, several ice routes when conditions yield, high end grade IV aid routes, endless traditional routes from 5.2-5.13, roadside crags and backcountry hidden gems, overhung sport routes, dead vertical bullet hard granite, cracks, water grooves, slabs, eye brows, roofs, flakes, dihedrals, and far more. In addition to getting you to the base of the routes, we hope the pages within this guide reveal the color and character of nearly six decades of NC climbing.
