Description
This is a great area of boulders with something for everyone, all centered roughly around and below the Beauty Mountain cliffline, gradually cascading down into the New River Gorge along Short Creek.
Getting There
Parking is the same as for Beauty Mountain cragging. Drive along the Lansing-Edmond Road from Rt. 19 past the two parking lots for Endless Wall. About 3/5 of a mile past the Nuttall Parking lot, look for Beauty Mountain Road on the right. Head shortly down this road to the obvious parking lot on the right.
Follow the stone stairs that lead from the parking, passing a house on your right and a gate after about 100 yards. Past the gate continue along a good gravel road that drops down into the gorge, where various cutoff paths branch off to climbing areas.
If you continue all the way down this main gravel road, you'll wind up at the Nuttalburg Mine Site, one of the best-preserved mining ruins in the area. It's totally worth the trip!
