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

Thin start to sustained 10a climbing, crux in a crack below small roof.

Location

15' right of Spatenweiss. Bolt line up steep orange face.

Protection

5 Bolts, Shuts.

Deserves the b/c rating it gets here. Jam the crack for the 10c variation. Use the features to the left for the 10b (my opinion only). Excellent climb. Apr 30, 2018

Phenomenal fun, I absolutely loved every inch of this route. After getting the redpoint and letting my friends give it a whirl, I gladly volunteered to climb it again on TR to clean it. Apr 19, 2022
