Alpine bouldering
|
Anything going on in the White or Green mountains, I assume someone is out there exploring. |
|
Smuggler's Notch, VT comes to mind as a popular bouldering zone in a subalpine setting. Unlike most alpine areas, it is super roadside too. |
|
Pretty sure there has been a thread on this. Huntington's has a lot, for instance. |

Thanks Brendan, that's exactly what I was looking for! |
|
From this video it looks like Carter Notch has some pretty good alpine bouldering. Granted the climbing featured is not that hard but there is a lot of great looking rock in the background. |
|
King Ravine- problems up to V11.. so far...Katahdin.... etc |
|
Mahoosic Notch too... Tux is limited... King I've heard really great things about. Shagg while not in the whites has some stellar bouldering but is not in a "alpine zone". Bigelow has some boulders along the Eastern ridge. |
|
The Bigelow preserve has some very tempting remote boulders. As a matter of fact, there are boulders all along the valley below Sugarloaf and Bigelow mountains if you want to make the drive to Maine. |
|
In the adk rock book, McKensie pond boulders as well as Poko and a few other places are pretty good. Easy to hard. Some huge stuff as well as small. Poko is fun to just walk around and find big boulders to climb... |
|
There is a massive erratic on the ridge between Rocky Peak Ridge and Blueberry Cobbles in the Adirondacks with some problems on it. |

When ur climbing on the thing it totally feels like it's gonna roll right down the hill. And the hike is a bit of a bear but entirely worth it and not THAT bad. Lions head over in Evans also has some amazing bouldering as well but def a hike. |
