Potato Boulder is a bouldering area in Rhode Island, about a mile from Saylesville Highlands. It is part of a cluster of climbing and mountain biking spots in the area, with the Fox Den and Death Dive Boulder climbing areas each about a tenth of a mile away and the Roll Into It mountain bike trail about 0.2 miles off. The routes here are all boulders, and they range from V0 to V4. The easiest ones are Home Fries at V0 and Sweet Potato at V0+, while Potato Salad is the hardest at V4. The median grade is V2-. 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. Olney Pond, a lake fishing spot, is about 0.7 miles away, and the Woonasquatucket River offers river fishing roughly 4 miles out.
