Access Issue: NO DRONES ON NATIONAL PARKLANDS
Details
All of the crags within the New River Gorge proper are on national parklands, and drone use is prohibited here. There has been some discussion about places to launch drones that are not on park property, and then flying them over the gorge. This is super poor form; don't do it. Park regulations prohibit all drone use over the boundaries without a permit.
Description
Mount up and climb this big bertha! Watch out or its awkward little roof might have you romantically straddling some rock.
Begin just right of arĂȘte and climb up and left to a cramped stance below the little roof with a large crack. Place some solid pro, re-orient yourself (maybe take a second to whisper a few sweet nothings to the rock) and then get it on! Once the deed is done and the roof is mounted, continue straight-up on easier ground. Top out, create an anchor and then watch the rest of your party struggle below.
