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
This is a buttress/prow that separates Kaymoor from South Nuttal on the north-facing side of the gorge. Small, but quality area where you will probably have the crag to yourself. It's a great summer area, with Endless Wall exposure and wind, but Kaymoor shade!
Getting There
Go towards the parking area for Butcher's Branch/Kaymoor, but when you get to the "T" in the road just past the old Roger's campground, take a right instead of a left. This will take you to a large parking area for the Arrowhead mountain bike trail complex. In the corner of this parking area is a gravel road that passes through a locked gate. Walk down this road as is winds through trees and hollows for about a mile, when it drops below the cliffline in a couple steep switchbacks. About 100 yards past the switchbacks, you will see a smallish boulder protruding out toward the road on your right. There is a faint trail/scramble just above this boulder that will take you up to the crag.
