Anyone know of good bouldering in the general Bozeman area? My place is in Belgrade and looking to do some after work bouldering.

I do have the guidebook for sport climbing and have been to a few areas, but wanted to not be reliant on my belayer. Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Is this area more obvious now? I went up there a couple of times looking for this in 2013 and never found it.

I think there are a few boulders in hyalite  that saw some development. There’s some fun looking stuff on the Madison river and Ennis lake. Butte area has tons.

Hardest part when I was there was finding people to go with. At the time the spire scene wasn’t going outside much

There’s a bouldering guidebook too. SW Montana Blocs by Erik Christensen. Buy it at Spire or Uphill Pursuits

Thanks Robert! And I'll definitely pick up that book Matt. And classics I should prioritize v6 and under?
