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
A great line! A reachy intro move at the first bolt leads to most excellent face climbing. A very thin, technical, and lengthy crux comes after the sixth bolt. The runout to the chains looks heinous, but is 5.7 or easier. Old school 12b, but a very proud send once you put it all together.
This route was recently rebolted by the NRAC with bomber stainless hardware, and will hopefully see more ascents now that the pins have been replaced.
