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
First edition guide says, "Fifty feet of straight in tips splitter crack that would look right at home in Squamish - if Squamish was covered in poison-ivy vines." The crack was cleaned and scrubbed of all poison ivy vines in March of 21'. This route is on par with The Shining and The Beckoning in regards to the finger locking fun, imo. Get on it and keep this beauty clean!
