Access Issue: Private Property - Access Closed
Details
The Meadow River is almost entirely private property and mostly CLOSED to climbing, EXCEPT Lower Meadow routes and boulders and Meadow Top boulders. The only public land, part of the Gauley River National Recreation Area, is far downstream and has no good access without crossing over closed private property.
Description
Furthest left sport route on the buttress. First 4 bolts are on beautiful gray rock with amazing texture. Starts off punchy, and keeps throwing little boulders at you the whole way up this perfect gently overhanging face. Jug your way out the roof, and stand up onto the upper headwall to clip the anchors.
There are a couple hollow flakes on the lower face, but all the holds in the roof are solid. The 5th bolt is quite rusty.
