Try Again Boulder

Try Again Boulder is a bouldering area in Rhode Island, about half a mile from the community of Saylesville Highlands. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with Upper Try Again and Buddy Boulder both about 0.1 mile away, and the Slick 50 and Whale Area just as close. The area is a compact hub of bouldering, with several named routes and a range of grades from V1 to V10. The climbing here is all bouldering, and the 19 routes on record run from the low end of the V scale up to V10. Pete's Arete is the easiest at V1, and Super Pete's is the hardest at V10. Pete's Problem is a V5, and Reverse Pete's is a V6+. The area is best suited to climbers who want to work on a range of problems in a single outing. For timing, late spring and early fall are the most comfortable. 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. Winter brings highs in the upper 30s and a few snowy days each month from December through February. The Split Rock Trail mountain biking route is about 0.2 mile away, and the Pantiline and Roll Into It trails are each about 0.3 mile off. Olney Pond, a lake fishing spot, is also about 0.3 mile away.
