Ben, speaking of Hot Henry routes, you should try the retaining walls in Kenmore Square that hold up the overpass (if you're a student in Boston, you must be relatively close to Kenmore). Barbarian Ballbuster used to be a local testpiece. If you like overhangs, go to the Rte. 9 boulder, the Temple Area Overhangs on the Hammond Pond Parkway, or the Alcove which is right near the Chestnut Hill Mall. All of these areas are in Newton and are very accessible via the Green Line.

The Kenmore Square bouldering is about a 3 minute walk from me. I have checked it out, but haven't been able to find a wall without a landing covered in glass. Planning on checking out Hammond pond once warmer temps hit. Thank you for the great info!

Good bouldering around Milford, also College Rock and other places

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
