The Cube Boulder is a bouldering area in Massachusetts, about half a mile from the town of Lynnhurst. It sits among a cluster of other bouldering spots, so it works well as one stop in a day of climbing the surrounding area. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Marblehead weather station show July highs around 80°F with lows near 61°F, and September still runs in the low 70s by day. Halfway Boulder, Final Exam Boulder and Ridge Boulders all lie about 0.1 mile away, and the Golf Course Area is about 0.3 mile off. Mountain bikers can head to the Old Goat Path (OGP) about 1.6 miles away.
