Love summersville lake!

Tons of deep water soloing routes on the lake, pontoon boats, kayaking, giant air mattress floaters, etc. rock climbing when they shut the dams since the water level is so low. Legend has it there is a old town under the lake that people will scuba dive to. I love climbing the rocks, hiking, and hanging out. There is a rock across the street from the freeways parking. Pussy rock is what they call it. You can camp over there but I do not recommend it. I got a fire fee after boat squad shut me and my friends down. And that was them being nice.
