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
This is one of the NRG's better trad lines of the grade. Climb through blocky rock with some pro to reach a bolt just below a mini-roof. Get your Rifle on, and thrutch through this kneebar and layback roof, looking for inobvious pro if you want to protect a bad fall into the ledge below. Past the roof, get established at the base of a tips crack, clip another bolt, and execute the extremely tenuous face crux up to a tips lock. Work up from here, with a #4 stopper at the ready to protect the last few moves of the crux. Past this are a few more moves of hard crack climbing, which lead you to a well-deserved jug rest. 30 more feet of pumpy and sequential 5.11 crack climbing will take you to the anchors.
