Summit Boulders 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 Dam Wall, Improbable Boulder and Lodi's Warmup all within about a tenth of a mile. The area holds 17 bouldering problems, ranging from V0 to V9. The median grade is V4, and the hardest route is Big Sucka at V9. Penny Ante is a V4 boulder with a first ascent by Joe McLoughlin, and Penny Pincher is the easiest at V0. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Woonsocket show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 75°F, while winter brings highs in the upper 30s and a few snowy days a month from December through February. Other climbing and riding is close by. Split Rock Trail and Roll Into It are mountain biking routes about 0.1 mile away, and Olney Pond is a fishing spot about 0.4 mile off.
