its not always good climbing weather but often damn beautiful

Get off the trail a little way off the beaten track and you will be surprised as what you can find. There are hidden caves and huge boulders that can be climbed up and thorough.

Looking across gorge, this photo was taken from anchors atop First Steps (5.10c), Seven Eleven Wall, Kaymoor. An awesome view!

Bridge view from junkyard wall (jumping jack flash)

these things love the trails during the rain

New River Gorge Bridge, from atop Junkyard Wall. (Note the "Pinnacle" emerging from the trees on the left.)

Beware climbing infrequently climbed routes may result in a few close encounters.

An all-too common sight on many routes at the gorge.

Summersville Lake, West Virginia - Deep Water Soloing

World class whitewater, Fayette Station Rapid (below Bridge Buttress). For climbers, the banks of the New River can provide a welcome summer cooldown.

The radness of the NRG! Love this place!<br>
