Online Bouldering Guide for Boone, North Carolina

by Tom Markiewicz on October 31, 2008


Recently I had a brief Twitter discussion with @WasatchGirl who is currently on an extended climbing trip. She was in Boone and wondering if there was any printed guidebook available. From my last visit I didn’t think there was any, but I did remember a few resources online that I had bookmarked.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any of the sites I thought I had saved, so I did a bit of searching and discovered a site I hadn’t seen before called BooneBoulders.com.

They have an excellent summary of each of the main areas including Grandmother Mountain, Blowing Rock, Lost Cove, and the 221 Boulders.

Each area description provides a detailed summary, directions to the boulders, and has a list of the classic problems.

You’ll still need to beg the locals for specific problem locations and beta, but BooneBoulders.com is a great start for visitors.
