Ride or Die Boulder is a bouldering area in the Wenatchee River Ranger District of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest in Washington, managed by the Forest Service. It sits among a cluster of climbing areas, with Little Italy and Bambino each about 0.1 mile away. The area has five bouldering routes, all rated between V4 and V8 on the V scale. Ride or Die is a V5, and Synesthesia is the hardest at V8. The name Ride or Die is also the name of the area, and the route Ride or Die was first climbed by Joe Treftz. Summer is the warmest stretch for a visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Leavenworth show July and August highs around 87°F with lows near 50°F and only about three wet days a month. That station sits roughly 1,400 feet lower than the boulders, so temperatures up high run cooler.
