Seam Boulder is a climbing area in the Dillon Ranger District of White River National Forest in Colorado, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among the Hummingbird Boulders, about 0.1 mile from Main Boulder, and is a short walk from Settlers' Creek Nature Trail. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show July highs around 75°F and lows near 38°F. That station sits a few hundred feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures at Seam Boulder run a little cooler. Other spots within a mile or two include the Snake River for paddling and the Settlers' Creek Nature Trail. For an overnight stay, Lowry Campground is about 5.9 miles away.
