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
Scramble to the sweet belay ledge 15 higher than the surrounding ground(easy).
Climb the thin flake that proves to not take any gear(way to wide) up this oft solo-ed line. If you like you can traverse into Strike A Scowl(5.10b) and clip its bolts, but then why not just lead Strike A Scowl and TR this climb(as most do).
This climb is an awesome way to finish a great day. 1st lead Strike a Scowl, set a TR then lower and clean Strike A Scowl. Climb out with your partner off Strike A Scowl's anchors and top it out. Gear Anchor or Tree Anchor available for 1st to belay up second.
