Grey Eagle Boulder is a bouldering area on Bureau of Land Management land in the Grand Junction Field Office in western Colorado. It sits among a cluster of other bouldering spots, with Taquero Vaquero Boulder, Gobka Boulder and Midland Rock all about 0.1 mile away. The climbing here is all bouldering, with six routes ranging from V1 to V4. The most notable is Grey Eagle, a V4, along with Senior Aerobics and Main Street Bench, both also V4. The area is best suited to climbers who enjoy bouldering on a small scale, with no single route standing out as a must-do. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 74°F and October highs around 66°F, while July averages climb to about 93°F. The Tabeguache Trail and a mountain bike trail near East Creek in Unaweep Canyon are both about 0.4 mile away. KOA Holiday campground is roughly 10 miles off.
