Warm-Up Area is a bouldering area in Utah on land managed by the Bureau of Land Management's Price Field Office. It is a compact cluster of boulders with routes that run from V0 to V9, making it a good stop for climbers of all grades. The Small One and UMWA Boulder both sit about 0.3 miles away, so the Warm-Up Area pairs easily with those two climbing areas. The route list includes 23 bouldering problems, with the easiest at V0 and the hardest at V9. A few of the named routes are Scoopable (V0), Bitter Bite (V3-), and Afterthought (V9). The most comfortable months for a visit are typically late spring and early fall. A nearby weather station at Castle Dale records typical average highs of about 75°F in May and 81°F in September, while July averages around 91°F. That station sits roughly 1,150 feet below the area, so expect temperatures on the boulders to run cooler.
