Thisis Part 2 of our series on hiking at Red River Gorge. Our previous post, Hiking To Rock Bridge Arch, gives you the rundown on where to start your visit to the park and what precautions you should take.

The Angel Windows Trailhead #218 is located in a gravel parking lot on State Highway 715. Its roughly a 3 mile drive Southeast of the Gladie Visitors Center and about 7 miles from the Rock Bridge Trailhead. Its a scenic drive full of hairpin twists and turns no matter which direction you come from. The road at times slims to just barely allow enough space for two cars to pass, so take your time and drive carefully while you enjoy the vistas. At a few points, the forest opens up to views of the mountain cliffs above it. Pull over and take the opportunity to snap some epic photos.


Once you spot the trailhead sign, it'll point you in the direction to start your .25 mile hike. The short distance is deceptive to the fact that you'll be hiking straight down for most of it and the hike back up will burn your muscles up. Most of the trail runs parallel to huge cliffs hanging above. The sections under the forest canopy resemble hanging gardens. Walls are thickly matted with various shades of brightly colored green mosses and lichen. Most of the crevices have ferns growing and draping over. The thick canopy of magnolias and rhododendrons give the illusion that you're hiking through a tropical jungle.


The cliffs exposed to the harsh mountain weather look as though they have been hand carved by its inhabitants from as far back as 12,000 years ago. Its truly a gorgeous and stunning environment to marvel at. The trail continues along a high cliff following the wooded ridge above it.


The end of the trail coincides with the edge of the ridge which contains the Angels Windows. There are many interpretations as to why its named Angels Window, but to me it appears as if the arches themselves are meant to be the wings of an angel.


If you walk through the arch, the opposite side also contains a short trail through a towering rock shelter. You can sit back and enjoy a picnic lunch while you contemplate the views and soak in the history of these beautiful arches.


This is one of the many reflections of my almost five year old since we added the blessing for protection of the Divine to our tekes laila (bedtime ritual) following our recitation of the Shema every evening.


Even a young child can appreciate intentional embodied practice. This reminds me each night of the power of the body to express blessing as strongly as the word. A simple waving of the hands with brief moments of song and prayer is sufficient to welcome God and create sacred space.


Whether we are parents or have mentored another person of any age, we know that the blessing and reward of the other comes to us as well. It is a privilege to watch that person grow into his or her most full, authentic self. Recognition and appreciation of the depth and beauty of that person by the world is a bonus blessing for us; a gift by association. Not minimal or merely proximate association, but a witnessing and affirmation of our presence, if only behind the scenes as, dare I say, an angel.


As we conclude this first book of the Torah and move into the next portion of our narrative as a people, I encourage us to take on a hesed practice in the coming weeks. For five minutes each day, offer a warm smile and authentic attention to those whom you encounter. Notice how you feel being present to another in this way. Are you anxious? Does your face move easily into a smile? What discomfort arises in intentionally noticing another? How are you deciding whom to notice? Take care not to judge your feelings. When those judgments arise, nod to them and let them float away.

The Angel Windows Trail at Red River Gorge in Pine Ridge, Kentucky is an easy 0.6 mile out-and-back hike that leads out to a cliff formation with natural cutouts in the rock cliffs, known as Angel Windows.



The windows are small - no more than 4 feet tall and a couple of feet wide, but they're a unique formation along the cliff. If you hike beyond the Angel Windows, you'll continue hiking along a cliff until the trail seemingly ends.

Dogs are allowed on this trail.

Our mission is to stay one step ahead of accidents to keep your little ones safe. Childproofing the home often involves baby gates at stairwells, locking cabinets, and covering electrical outlets, but what about the windows? Simply put, window screens do not provide adequate structural support for a curious child leaning to get a better look. Guardian Angel provides that layer of safety.


You might think that an artist who paints sacred art does so out of a profound sense of faith, and in that you would be mostly correct. We have only to look at the many centuries of Christian artists who have expressed their faith in artistic beauty to know that this is true.


Fra Angelico (1395-1455), for example, would kneel down to pray before taking up his brush every morning, asking God to bless and multiply his works for the evangelization of souls. That holy Dominican friar is the patron saint of Christian Artists.


Apparently, he had been raised in a Christian household but had lost his faith like so many of the so-called intellectuals and artists of his day. He was even known to scoff at organized religion when asked his opinion on the matter. Again, interesting, and quite sad.


Angels are sacred windows in their own ways, able to penetrate the souls of irreligious people with transcendent beauty. I truly believe they have a role in inspiring excellent religious art, no matter the motive of the artist. The patron saint of artists is named, Angel-ico, after all.


He was not just a painter but became accomplished in virtually every art form available to him: illustration, painting (in a variety of mediums), mosaics, tapestries, and stained glass. He even created furniture, stage sets, and costumes for the theater!


He came of age during a period in English history where artists were reacting against the hyper-materialism of the Industrial Revolution and the formalism of religious art of past centuries. Here are the various artistic currents that inspired him:


Burne-Jones made four separate trips to Italy in the course of his career, and his angels reflect his deep exposure to Italian art. Even though the artistic movements of the day eschewed Renaissance rules of composition, they loved Renaissance styles! A host of the greats like Botticelli and Michelangelo would have been very much at home with these Burne-Jones angels!


While the obvious answer to this question is that only Jesus saves us, it is also clear from scripture that the Lord used (and continues to use) angels to save and rescue people. The Chicken Soup for the Soul series has at least three books detailing stories of angels who rescue people!


The impact of certain life encounters will stay with you for years. This summer will mark the twenty-year anniversary of one such encounter.

August of 2001 saw me visiting my sister in La Crosse, WI and taking a brief tour of the chapel in the motherhouse of the Franciscan Sisters of Perpetual Adoration, on the campus of Viterbo University, where my (now retired) sister taught.


The difference in art between medieval (see link below) and post-medieval depictions of Cherubim (with the exception of artists like William Blake) is a helpful quick slap on the cheeks of cultural memory.


We think that everything is so predictable (more so than it actually is) that we now believe that there is no personal will behind any of the events. The Bible would often portray events happening in the angelic realm as having earthly counterparts. Empires would be influenced by angelic beings (usually fallen) and Israel would be protected by St. Michael. I wonder what spiritual realities are hidden behind the current pandemic.


Like an apparition, Angel strides along the countryside and haunts two children as they play in the fields and inside the house. The gaze she lays on them is tainted by the past. From another era, as a ghost amongst the living, she lets her face be covered in a gloopy substance making a see-through mask. She slips into a second apparition. Angel Olsen appears in dazzling clothes and solar hairdo. From the Italian Haute Renaissance, straight out of a Rafael or Veronese, adorned with a ruff and noble fabrics, gold and jewels, she now embodies the exuberance of Venetian nobility and Elizabethan spirit. In a magnificent full-length portrait, the profane angel slivering in Vaseline near the fields in summer now drips with ornaments like autumnal leaves. Displaced, idealised, mythicized, Angel stands like a Cranach queen, a woodland creature, of sombre impassivity, surviving nature in a (sur)real universe.
