Intro (What is this?)

This is an online bouldering guide for Lincoln Woods State Park which is widely regarded as having the best bouldering in New England. Here you'll find directions to get to "The Woods", a map of the areas boulders, a guide to the bouldering problems, and a little history. Our intention is to provide information about the bouldering at The Woods. There is lots of bouldering here, but you'll be hard pressed to find it on your own (that's why we've got a map of the area). Wedon't intend this to be a complete guide to the boulders there since that would be impossible. The possibilities for routes is phenomenal, and the number of link-ups huge -- causing John Sherman to dub this area the "Linkin' Woods".

The "Rock 'n Road" Guide gives the Woods 3 Stars out of five! Horsetooth Reservoir gets 4 out of 5 so that's pretty darn good!

The Goal:
Rui Campos started this project intending to produce a fully browsable, point-and-click guide to Lincoln Woods bouldering. Because he couldn't devote much time to it, Rui passed this guide on to us here at newenglandbouldering.com. We have taken Rui's old guide and tried to update it as best we can. We hope to keep updating it and adding to it, to make it a continuing resource to visitors and locals alike. We welcome any and all comments.

Disclaimer:
Please remember that we are very proud of this area. It's quiet, clean, and friendly, and we want to keep it that way. Don't dump garbage in our woods, and don't leave behind any food bar wrappers or used hand tape. There usually aren't any garbage barrels or toilets near the boulders, so be prepared for this. Also, climbers are not the only ones who come to the Lincoln Woods State Park. The locals use the park for walking, all-terrain biking, soccer games, swimming, fishing, picnics, and more. They stay out of your way so be considerate of them as well.
