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
Boulder up the start of Butter Face getting good gear in both horizontals, extend to reduce drag around the corner. From the corner stance traverse out right on the horizontal and mantle the ledge to establish on Happy Head. Finish up Happy Head.
Location
A left entry into Happy Head that starts just around the corner. Shares the start of Butter Face and then links into Happy Head at the arête.
Protection
Shares the bolt anchor with Happy Head
