Dam Wall is a bouldering area in Rhode Island, about 0.8 miles from Saylesville Highlands. It sits among a cluster of climbing and mountain biking spots, with several other climbing areas and the Split Rock Trail within a tenth of a mile. The area has 13 bouldering routes, all rated from V0 to V4 on the V scale. The easiest are Dam Dihedral and Tree Crack at V0, and the hardest is High Water at V4, first climbed by Chris Ryan. The routes are all boulders, so there is no climbing on rock faces here. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Woonsocket weather station show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 75°F, with July the warmest month at about 84°F. Improbable Boulder, Lodi's Warmup and Summit Boulders are all about 0.1 mile away, and Olney Pond is about 0.4 mile off for fishing.
