Scratching the Ear

Description

Sit start on the two big jug/corners under the nose-like protrusion. Match on a sharp intermediate jug and then up to great slopers on top of the 'tip of the nose'. Work your way up the slab and top out behind the 'ear' of the climb. 

Location

'Old Man of Thorns' boulder. Take your first right coming from the North St parking lot, and follow the blue blazed trail to the north-east corner of the park. There's a place where the blue blaze trail turns 90 degrees left but if you walk straight for 10 yards you're on a new trail with a fence line.. If you follow the fence line, make a right through a break in the fence where Babcock Preserve becomes the Greenwich Land Trust Westfall and the boulder is right there on your right and can't be missed.
