I used to go to 7 falls alot when I lived outside of hartford. The rock can be REALLY rough in places since it doesn't see alot of traffic, so bring tape. Climbs can often be pretty dirty and be prepared to do alot of hiking and wandering as the boulders are spaced far apart and hidden in the trees. Quite a few are highballs and I suppose there a quite a few classic lines if they were clleaned up and saw more traffic...
Be sure to stop at Eli Cannon's in Middletown and sample their 30+ tap beers. The Tibetean food across the street is really top notch as well.
That being said, I would recommend doing some of the classics routes in CT or drive to Lincoln woods if you have the time. I think most of the decent bouldering in CT is on private property.
