The Buzz Boulder is a bouldering area in the Salt Lake Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of climbing and hiking spots just outside the district's boundaries, with the closest neighbors including Buzz Boulders and Paul's, each about 0.1 mile away. The area is a compact bouldering destination with seven routes, all rated in the V4 to V10 range. The most notable among them are Busy Bee at V4 and Blind, Deaf, and Dumb at V10, with Flip at V9 standing out as a route with a first ascent by Chris Sharma and J Keener. The Buzz Boulder itself is the anchor of the name, and its grade of V7 falls in the middle of the area's range. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the Timpanogos Cave weather station, about 9 miles away, show May highs near 66°F and September highs near 76°F. July and August run hotter, with highs in the upper 80s. Little Cottonwood Creek Trail is right next door, and Tanners Flat Campground is about 3 miles away. Lake Lillian and Lake Florence, both around 4 miles off, offer fishing.
