About Nelson Rocks

— the site was purchased by Camp Horizons (Harrisonburg VA) and unguided access is closed until access policies are figured out. NROCKS Outdoor Adventure runs guided climbing and the via ferrata by reservation. Tuscarora quartzite is glass-hard and fast-drying, same character as Seneca — climbable within hours of rain if the wind is on.
