The A-Team Boulders is a bouldering area in California's Inyo National Forest, within the White Mountain Ranger District, managed by the Forest Service. It sits close to the Hueco Wall Area and the Small Fruit climbing area, both about 0.1 mile away, so it works well as part of a cluster of bouldering spots. The boulders range from V0 to V6, with eight routes spread across that span. The A-Team and B-Team are both V3, and Soldier of Fortune is V5, while Mohawk starts at V0. Climbers can also head to the Hueco Wall Area, which is nearly right next door. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical July and August highs reach about 74°F with lows near 49°F and only a day or two of wet weather, according to averages from a nearby weather station at Huntington Lake. Winters there are cold, with typical January highs around 43°F and lows in the mid-20s. Bitterbrush Campground is about 2.4 miles away, and the Mount Tom hike is about 2.8 miles off.
