Beehive Boulder is a bouldering area in Rhode Island, about a mile from Saylesville Highlands. It sits among a cluster of climbing and mountain biking spots, with the Sit Down area / Druid's Circle and The Pedestal Boulder both about 0.1 mile away. The closest mountain biking is on Ripcord, also about 0.1 mile off. The area has five bouldering routes, all rated between V1-2 and V5. The hardest is Beehive Traverse at V5, and Beehive Direct, first climbed by Joe McLoughlin, is also V4. Bee's Knees is another V4. The routes are all bouldering, so there is no rope climbing here. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Woonsocket show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 75°F, while July averages about 84°F and January highs sit near 38°F.
