Eastern Ohio is a climbing area in Ohio, about a mile from the town of Mount Carrick. It is a bouldering destination with two named routes, both boulders, and both rated V2 to V3 on the V scale. The East Rim Trail and West Rim Trail start within a third of a mile, so the area works well as a base for a short outing on foot as well as for climbing. The most comfortable months for a visit are late spring and early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Hannibal Locks & Dam show May highs around 73°F and September highs around 77°F, with September also seeing the fewest wet days of the year. The closest climbing is at Main Area, about 7.6 miles away, and at Low Point Boulders and High Point boulders, each about 8 miles out. For a hike, Plainview Horsehoe Falls is roughly 7.4 miles away.
