Wetmore Peak

Wetmore Peak is a bouldering area in Michigan, about 0.3 miles from the community of Wetmore Landing. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with Harlow Lake Pathway just 0.1 mile away and Trail Side and Gateway Outcrops each about 0.2 mile off. The area is also close to the Hogback North hike, making it easy to pair a day of bouldering with a walk. The climbing here is all bouldering, with six routes spread across the V0- to V6-7 range. The Downclimb Route is the easiest at V0-, and the Jungle Cat Project is the hardest at V6-7. The Rail Traverse and Tuck Orignal Route sit in between, with grades of V3 and V4. The Harlow Lake Pathway and Trail Side areas are the closest neighbors for more climbing. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Marquette weather station show July highs around 75°F with lows near 58°F, while winter brings frequent snow days and highs in the 20s. Kona Hills Campground, about 9 miles away, is the closest place to camp.
