Quarry Land is a bouldering area on town forest in Massachusetts, managed as city land. The surrounding town forest makes it easy to pair with other climbing spots close by, and the nearby town of Milford Byway and West Hill Park are within a short drive. Bouldering dominates the climbing here. The area holds 37 routes, 36 of them bouldering problems and one trad climb. The bouldering runs from V0- to V7+, with a median of V3. The V7+ route Paradigm of Parallelity is among the hardest, and Weird Rock Crack is the easiest at V0-. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the nearby West Medway weather station run to highs around 71°F in May and 76°F in September, with July highs near 84°F. Winter brings frequent snow days, with January averaging six. The Roofs and Back Hillside both sit about 0.1 mile away, and Hillside is just as close.
