Broken Moon Boulder is a bouldering area in Rhode Island, about 1.8 miles from the town of West Greenwich. It is a small cluster of boulders with four named routes, all of which are bouldering problems, and the grade range runs from V1 to V8. The most notable route is the boulder itself, Broken Moon, which is rated V6. The climbing season here peaks in late spring and early fall, when typical averages from a nearby weather station run from highs around 71°F in May to about 74°F in September. Winters are cold, with January highs averaging about 36°F. The station sits at a slightly lower elevation than the boulders, so temperatures on the rocks may run a little cooler. The Wickaboxet Trail is only about half a mile away, and the Bates Trail and Tillinghast Pond Trail are both within about 2 miles. For more bouldering, Breakheart Ledge is roughly 3 miles off.
