Pelham Tree Farm Boulders is a bouldering area in New Hampshire, about 0.2 miles from Varnumtown, Massachusetts, which sits just across the state line. The boulders are the main draw, with 10 boulder problems spread across the site, and the climbing is all on rock rather than on a route. The boulders range from V0 to V4+, with most of the problems sitting in the V1-2 range. Heart Burn is the easiest, and Cross My Heart is the hardest. Left Ventricle of Power, a V3, was first climbed by Nick Trudel. For a longer outing, the Pond View Trail and Charles Jack Path are both within a third of a mile. Phoebe Rock Trail and the Long Trail are a little farther out. Climbers looking for more boulders can head to Lowell-Dracut-Tyngsboro State Forest, about 3 miles away.
