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
Start behind the left end of a large triangular detached block. Pull a roof followed by face moves to another smaller roof. Move left to gain the anchors.
Location
Near the right end of Sandstonia and located behind the left edge of a very large detached flake between The Bitter End on the right and Bass Ackwards on the left.
Protection
This route has 6 bolts and bolted anchors shared with Bass Ackwards.

There are three distinct cruxes in this climb, and you can easily see all from the ground. The first roof, the mid-way layback, and the second roof. This climbing definitely worth doing if Tattoo wall is over run. The last bolt is a bit tricky to clip as well so be careful.
And yes ... I cheesed the top a bit in my stressed single focus mindset I allowed myself to slip into. :/ Don't be me and cheese the top, there are some good holds up there if you move slowly to obtain them :D
