The development of the climbing and whitewater rafting scenes occurred simultaneously beginning in the 70’s and 80’s. Just as a few visionary paddlers recognized the potential for the New and Gauley Rivers to become a world-class whitewater destination, a small group of avid climbers walked the cliff bands and visualized a world-class climbing destination. After years of new route development this has come to pass.
