Description

Boulder Natural is nestled in the forest alongside a stream and is home to roughly 30 boulders and 150 problems that have been climbed on for decades. The high quality and highly featured glacially deposited granite offers up slopers and crimps galore and climbs ranging from V0 lowballs to V12 highballs. Classics range from the striking Ride the Lightning and tricky Terrorist to the friendly Hobbit Hole and fierce Halcyon. In other words, there�s something here for everyone, but keep in mind that the area dries slower than other areas in the park given its shady nature.

Getting There

Continue past lower slabs west along swamp 5 min and behold the boulders.

Alternatively if you drive in from the South, walk along the trail from your car east and stop when you hit the huge boulders.

Featured Route For Boulder Natural

Bones to Bits. Offwidth to chimney. 5.9 if you know how to climb this sort of thing. Don't fall.

Bones to Bits V2-3 NH : Pawtuckaway : ... : The Split Boulder

One of the very best boulder problems at Pawtuckaway. Don't climb too far unless you're sure of what you're doing. A funky layback/kneebar keeps the"riff raff" away at the bottom. A classic squeeze chimney follows which then pinches off at the top. You must then leave the security of the chimney for the crux - a surprisingly awkward scrunch move makes the transition to the mossy slab above. You really wouldn't want to pop off here. Relish the summit (like being on the roof of a house!), th...[more] Browse More Classics in NH

The large crash pad was much appreciated. Although not for myself, it lead to some sends on Ride the Lightning. Big ups to whom ever carried that thing in.

I found it to be beyond belief that someone would leave a piece of garbage that large in such a pretty area. though i too am happy if a bunch of folks were able to send their proj. Im not against the pad, just pack out what you pack in...

Found it tucked away neatly into a storm boulder cave and it was removed shortly there after. Not okay even for the short window of spring climbing? No disrespect intended to PWay.
