Description

This is a small glacial erratic just off the Woodland Path. What it lacks in size it makes up for in rock quality; a nicely textured granite similar to the Slanted Boulder. There are a couple easy, pint-sized sit-starts to amuse the passing boulderer. I believe it may be what's referred to as "Midget Boulder" on the map on the Wright's Park main page, but please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Getting There

Starting from the Flynn Rink parking lot, follow the Woodland Path/Cross-Fells Trail west. At the intersection with Half Mile Path, continue along the Woodland Path straight up to a rocky hill. Continue along the trail, keeping your eye out on the left for a short worn path to this boulder.
