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
Hard climbing on beautiful sandstone. Either because of its grade, mixed status or location, this quality route seems to see little action but all the better for those of us who hate chalk caked climbs and especially those annoying little tick marks! Start in center of wall and climb up on good holds past an old pin to ledge. Follow bolt line straight up fantastic orange face. Crux is at first bolt just above ledge. Like most routes at the bridge, this one is stiff for its grade.
Protection
Mixed: 3 bolts and 1 pin. No anchors. Rap station on Right towards waterfall and cliff breakdown.
Note: A rusty pin and manky sling make this climb a good candidate for a TR assent which is easy to set-up after climbing on of the other surrounding routes. Bring a cordelete or a long piece of webbing to stretch from trees to the cliff edge. Rap station is Right towards waterfall and cliff breakdown.
