Fox Den is a bouldering area in Rhode Island, about a mile from the Saylesville Highlands neighborhood. It sits right next to several other climbing spots, including The Mines of Moria, Potato Boulder and Yosemite Boulder, each roughly 0.1 mile away. The climbing here is all bouldering, and the routes run from V1 up to V4, with most around V2. Sandstorm is a V1, and Anubis's Crevasse is a V4. The area is compact, so a visit can easily include several problems in a short time. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from the nearby Woonsocket weather station put May highs around 70°F and September highs around 75°F, while winter brings regular snow from December through February. Mountain bikers can ride Roll Into It and Ripcord, both about 0.2 mile away, and Olney Pond, a lake fishing spot, is under a mile off.
