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
Climb the thin flake (fingers) heading slightly left and then straight up to an overhang. Pass the overhang on the right and into a corner. Traverse 8 Ft. right to access a Bombay hand/finger crack (crux) and follow to the top. This route is much cleaner than it appears from the ground. The walls on either side of the crack have lots of lichen, but the holds that you need are all very clean. Some of the rock near the overhang is a little broken, but very stable.
