Creekside Boulder is a climbing area in Coopers Rock State Forest in West Virginia, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It sits among a cluster of boulders and small climbing areas, with several named spots within a short distance of one another. September is a comfortable time to visit, with typical highs around 77°F and lows near 56°F, based on averages from a nearby weather station in Morgantown. That station sits a few hundred feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures here may run slightly cooler. Step Roof lies just 0.1 mile away, and Make Due and Eye Brow Boulders are each about 0.2 mile off. For a walk, the Clay Furnace Trail is roughly 0.9 mile away.
