Charlottesville
New River Gorge
Heading to the NRG. I just bought a Eurovan camper and would like to head out to Summersville before they drain it. Rats hole is hard but the rope swing is amazing. Probably climb some other moderates though at Summersville proper or wherever else seems good depending on weather.
You can expect a dance party at Rays if we roll there to camp. The van is on ready 5 topgun style.
Trying to keep my end of the trip down to whoever can fit in the van. There are a few other trips heading to the NRG as well but I have room in the van so….sign up and get a ride in the climb-lab.
