Climbing Area Description
This climbing mecca is located in the beautiful New River Gorge National River, with over 1500 routes on impeccable (well, usually) Nutall sandstone. Picture a lush green landscape with miles and miles of picturesque cliffs. Lush means rain, and the locals say that when the weather is good here, it is amazing - but when it's not good, it is downright horrible. Summers can be hot and humid, winters are mild with occasional windows of good climbing, spring and fall are perfect!
