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
Start with a thin and tricky sequence up blank rock to the high first bolt. Engage in another difficult section before a bolt or two of cruiser terrain. A couple of long moves lead to a small roof and the meat of the climb.
Only 15 feet remain, but they're brutal. Move dynamically around the roof and simultaneously pull your groin/labrum/hamstring to get established in the left-facing dihedral. Curse the lack of feet as you smear and swear your way up to an obvious anchor-clipping hold (which may or may not be a cruel disappointment).
Better climbers than me have half-jokingly called this route harder than Proper Soul. In any case, it's a true New River '13b', and a fine opportunity for character-building.
