Fancy Schmancy

Connecticut > CT Bouldering > Sleeping Giant

Description

This is 2 small cluster of pretty large boulders, off of the Blue Trail. It gets sun in the middle of the day because it is in a little depression between two broken cliff bands.

Getting There

Follow the Tower Trail (main paved trail) from the parking lot. Walk past the Chin (it will be the large cliff on your left, about 10 minutes into the walk) until you get to where the blue trail crosses the Tower Path. Take a right on the Blue Trail (head east) and walk up the hill for about another 5 minutes. The boulders will be on your left as you get to the top of the small hill. They are visible from the trail. It is the bright yellow X on the map.
