Low Point Boulders is a bouldering area in Ohio, about 2 miles from the town of Crabapple. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with High Point boulders, Raven Rocks and Electric Rain Boulders all within about a tenth of a mile. The area has 11 bouldering routes, all rated on the V scale. The easiest is Glockoma at V0, and the hardest is Crispy Clam at V8-9. Mantle Toboggan and Wocket are both V3. The routes are spread across the boulders rather than on a single wall, so climbers can pick a problem to suit their grade. For comfortable weather, late spring and early fall are the best bets. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Barnesville show May highs around 72°F and September highs around 76°F, with July the warmest month at about 83°F. Other bouldering is close by, including Squirrel Stew Boulder and Pine Ridge Boulders, each about 0.4 miles away. For a change of pace, the East Rim Trail and West Rim Trail are both about 8 miles off.
