"This property is a great addition to the national preserve portion of the park where hunting is allowed," said New River Gorge Superintendent Charles Sellars. "It connects two previously non-contiguous sections and assures that hunters and other users have easier access to an existing 85-acre section of the preserve."
The park's authorized boundaries were modified by Congress in December 2020, allowing for the tract's purchase.
Access to the new property will be limited at first as the park establishes suitable areas for parking and marks the boundary, the statement said.
