Breadloaf Boulder

Connecticut > CT Bouldering

Description

Solitary boulder visible from the road. Granite with tremendous potential for problems. As it is on a hill in the woods, it gets little sunshine, mostly PM.

Getting There

Right off route 7 in New Milford. Going towards Gaylordsville, it's on the left shortly after the road split where 37 branches off. Parking on the side of the road, and a wide dirt path for 50 feet takes you to the boulder.

[Hide Comment] Nice piece o rock! Uncommonly large glacial erratic. Half a dozen good primary lines, with lots of variants. Steepest section is the easiest way up - fun, sharp V0- jugs. Harder stuff (V1-4?) around the 25-30' tall south side. Definitely worth a pit stop if you're passing by, although 'tremendous potential' is a tad hyperbolic :') Jan 25, 2018

[Hide Comment] Bread loaf Boulder? I’ve climbed on this rock for 30 years and others before me. Who decided on this name? We had others. Also, this is private land—don’t ruin it Dec 1, 2020
