White Chuck River Boulders (D-Ton) is a bouldering area in the Darrington Ranger District of Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington, managed by the Forest Service. The climbing is all bouldering, and the area holds 10 routes that run from about V2 to V8. The most comfortable time to go is summer into early fall, when typical averages from a nearby weather station in Darrington run from highs around 78°F in July to about 72°F in September. That station sits roughly 1,000 feet below the boulders, so temperatures at the rocks run cooler. The area's boulders include "Don't Chalk Block Me" (V2), "Log Jam" (V7) and "Gen X" (V8). Within a few miles are Crystal Lake Trail and Mount Pugh Summit Trail for hiking, and Bedal Campground and the Upper Slabs & Dodge Dart Area for more climbing.
