Gully Boulders is a bouldering area in Massachusetts, about a mile from Merrimac Terrace. It sits among a cluster of other bouldering spots, including Bob Johnson Boulder 1 and Bob Johnson Boulder 2, each about 0.1 mile away, and The Lost Boulder at 0.2 mile. The climbing here is all bouldering, with 14 routes ranging from V1 to V8, so it works well for climbers who want a day of crimping and jamming on small holds. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Marblehead show July highs around 80°F with lows near 61°F, while winter highs stay in the 30s and 40s. The routes are spread across the boulders, with the easiest at V1 and the hardest at V8. Some of the named routes include Rock On (V1), Squeeze Job (V3), Progeny (V5) and The Compromise (V8). The Bob Johnson Boulder 1 and 2 areas are right next door, and the Overlook Trail and Old Goat Path (OGP) mountain biking trails are about 0.7 mile away.
