Bridge Boulders is a bouldering area in the Ferron Ranger District of Manti-La Sal National Forest in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with Playtime is Over, Space Chubby, Salsa Verde and The Edge all about 0.1 mile away, and New Joe's just as close. The boulders here are the main draw. Seven routes are listed, all bouldering, with grades ranging from V0-1 to V4. Babe's Boulder and Slab Side are the easiest, at V0-1, while Sap Arete is the hardest, at V4. Grady's List is a V3. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the Castle Dale weather station, about 9 miles away, show May highs around 75°F and October highs around 68°F, while July averages about 91°F. That station sits roughly 1,500 feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures on the rock run cooler. For more time on the land, the Des-Bee Dove-Mine hike is under a mile away, and River Bend Campground is about 9 miles off.
