- Nelson_Rocks abstract "Nelson Rocks is a large privately owned crag located in the North Fork Valley of Pendleton County, West Virginia. The area is operated under the name of Nelson Rocks Outdoor Center (NROC), and was previously known as Nelson Rocks Preserve (NRP). The mountainous 145 acre site features two parallel rock fins made of tuscarora sandstone, a Via Ferrata connecting both fins and a canopy tour equipped with zip-lines. Nelson Rocks is at the southern end of the River Knobs, which contain several other similar "razorback" ridges or "fins" such as Champe Rocks, Seneca Rocks and Judy Gap, all on the western flank of North Fork Mountain.Rock climbing at Nelson Rocks dates back about as far as at nearby Seneca Rocks; however, for most of that time, this privately owned area was not officially open to the public. In 1943 and '44, as part of the West Virginia Maneuver Area, 10th Mountain Division of the U.S. Army used Seneca, Nelson and Champe Rocks to train mountain troops in assault climbing in preparation for action in the Apennines of Italy. They left behind an estimated 75 thousands soft iron pitons, some of which can still be found on the rocks.In 1998 the area was purchased by Stuart Hammett who operated it under the name Nelson Rocks Preserve for about a decade, after which it was purchased by Camp Horizons. After creation of NRP, the area was officially open to rock climbing, and the climbing scene flourished. During the 1998-2001 seasons, the number of routes doubled reaching about 100 routes. Currently the area is closed to unguided climbing.".
