BETA PHOTO: Map of Cooper's Rock climbing.


Description 

Collection of Boulders and short toprope cliffs make for an enjoyable stop-off.

The boulders are highly featured and are great fun with or without a bouldering pad as most of the landings are pretty flat.

Baltimore locals who are very tired of Great Falls should make the drive through Cumberland Gap to come visit this interesting location.

American Grit!

If you get rained out you can stop by the gym at WVU's indoor climbing wall


Getting There 

Cooper's Rock State Forest is located along I-68, 13 miles east of Morgantown, WV. Take the Cooper's Rock State Forest exit (exit 15) on I-68 and turn south. Follow the park road to its end, where there is plentiful parking.

There's a few trips worth of top-roping, a couple of trad leads, and a lots and lots of high-quality bouldering on gritstone(?). The area is a state forest but access seems to be a perpetual problem.
