Cracked Egg Boulder is a bouldering area in Washington, about 1.3 miles from the town of Reiter. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with Sanctuary Boulders and Midnight Lichen boulder each about 0.1 mile away, so it works well as one stop in a day of bouldering in this corner of the state. The climbing here is all bouldering, with eight routes spread across the V2 to V8 range. The easiest are Chalk Blocker and Kicking and Screaming at V2, and the hardest are Hagakure and The Nexus at V8. Samurai sits at V5, and Nose Breaker is a V3-. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Baring show July and August highs around 77°F with only about seven wet days a month, while winter brings highs in the low 40s and frequent snow days. Lake Isabel Trail is about 0.6 mile away, and Wallace Falls State Park Campground is about 3.7 miles off. Paddlers can head to the Wallace River, about 2.7 miles away, and Camp Huston is about 3.5 miles away.
