New River Gorge is a National Park?, I did not realize that. I sure don't remember that being the case in 1995-2001 when I was actively kayaking it. Obviously, not a place to fly if that is the case.
Edit, New River is a National River, not a National Park, same as the Buffalo River in my State. However I understand that National River's are considered to have the same rules as a National Park, i.e. NRZ within the boundary of the National River. On the Buffalo, this is usually a 1 mile to .5 wide section of land.
