Bouldering is a climbing area in the Peru Peak Wilderness, part of the Manchester Ranger District of the Green Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests in Vermont. The Forest Service manages the land, and the area sits within designated wilderness. The climbing here is all bouldering, with five routes spread across the V5 to V11 range. The most straightforward are Everlasting Fire and Hell's Half Circle, both V5, and Kuragari at V6. Cerberus is V7+, and Fire and Brimstone Project is the hardest at V11. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Peru run to highs around 75°F in July, with lows near 56°F. That station sits about 660 feet lower than the bouldering area, so temperatures up high run cooler. Rootbeer Ridge and Old Job are both hikes within about 2 miles. Lost Pond Shelter and Big Branch Shelter offer camping about 3 miles away.
