Webb Mountain Park is a climbing area in Connecticut, about a mile from the town of Riverside. It sits close to several other trails and climbing spots, making it an easy addition to a day spent exploring the surrounding area. The park holds a single route, Abandoned Teddy Bears Sleep with Vultures, a trad climb rated 5.10a. That grade puts it in the upper range of intermediate climbing, so expect a route that demands both skill and attention to detail. For a longer outing, the White-Yellow Trail and the Blue Trail Section are both within a mile. The Paugussett Trail is about a mile away, and Kettletown State Park, roughly 3 miles off, offers more climbing.
