The Greenbrier (Triangle) 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 spots, with Roof Rocks, Creekside Boulder and Pig Iron Boulder all about 0.4 miles away, and the Kurt Cobain Memorial Wall about half a mile off. The boulders hold 16 routes, all rated on the V scale from V2 to V8, with the median at V4. Among the named routes are Blockhead at V2, Bend It at V4 and Diesel Power at V8. For comfortable weather, aim for late spring or early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Morgantown run to highs around 74°F in May and 77°F in September, with July the warmest month at about 84°F. That station sits roughly 660 feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures here run cooler.
