Moon Boulder is a bouldering area in Texas, about 11 miles from the town of Fort Davis. It sits right next to the Secret Clubhouse climbing area, which is just 0.1 mile away, making it easy to pair the two for a single visit. The area has one bouldering route, Under The Half Moon, which is rated V2- on the V scale. That makes it a straightforward choice for climbers looking for a single boulder problem in the area. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Fort Davis show April highs around 80°F and October highs near 79°F, while June and July average highs in the low 90s. That station sits about 700 feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures on the rock run a bit cooler. For a change from climbing, the Indian Lodge Trail, Montezuma Quail Trail and Limpia Creek Trail are all within about 9 miles.
