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
Super solid slab climb. Technical feet support iffy hands through fun, balancey moves. The crux is an unavoidable set of undercling moves on tricky feet between the 6th and 7th hanger. Belaying in this spot is tricky as the ground is steep and loose and the rock ledge below is steep, so its a good idea to throw in a cam (BD 2) at the obvious leftwards crack as a belay station. Just like everywhere else at the new, first clip is high so we used another cam (BD .3) as a first clip.
