New River info/advice/help

Folks, my partner and I are looking to head down to the New River Gorge for a few days. We've never been and don't have the guidebook yet (we'll pick it up along the way). The forecast looks ok, but it's borderline for a 12 hour car drive in our opinion. Can anyone offer any advice on whether it's possible to climb anything during the rain, shortly after a storm if the weather is nice, or if this time of year is just bad news for the New River? Thanks to any advice that can be offered.

Greg - There are plenty of places to climb in the rain at the New. Some of the guidebooks have recommendations for climbing on rainy days. Flyin' Brian McCray's book, and a few other books, are in this group. Look for it when your picking out your guidebook.

Expect rain this time of year...it's the New. Only a few moderates stay dry in the rain. The caves and overhangs will likely stay dry but the routes are 12+ and harder.
