Entrance Boulders is a bouldering area in Coopers Rock State Forest in West Virginia, managed by the State Department of Natural Resources. It sits among a cluster of climbing areas, with Upper Rock City, The Forgotten Block Area and the Tomb Raider Area all about 0.1 mile away. The Underlook Trail is also within a tenth of a mile. The bouldering here is all on the same level, with no route requiring a climb. The area holds 10 boulder problems, ranging from V0 to V4. The easiest is BBW at V0, and the hardest is Finger Wrecker (aka Career Ender) at V4. The median grade is V2. For timing, September is the most comfortable month, with typical highs around 77°F and lows near 56°F, based on averages from a nearby weather station in Morgantown. That station sits about 800 feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures at the rocks run cooler.
