Chadbourne Crag is a climbing area in the Mount Olympus Wilderness, part of the Salt Lake Ranger District of the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest in Utah. The Forest Service manages the land. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Alta weather station show July highs around 73°F with lows near 50°F, while winter highs stay around 30°F. That station sits about 1,400 feet below the crag, so temperatures up high run cooler. Neff's Canyon and the Neffs Canyon Trail are both about half a mile away. South Summit is about a mile off, and Lake Florence is roughly 5.6 miles away.
