Tulip Crack

Description

This is undeniably one of the best boulder problems in Vedauwoo, and I think one of the best anywhere. It's a perfect, right-leaning splitter that goes from stacks to fingertips with a nice tricky jug up top. The rock is really fine grained, some of the best granite at Vedauwoo. It also has a V6 variation, The Bush Eater, put up by Jeremy Medley, that starts on the right on a hand jam. You reach up to the big obvious patina flake and move left into the crack - very cool. Both versions move really neat, and both are must do problems.

Location

Park as for

Fingorilla

. Walk down the road for a couple hundred feet and head up to the boulders on the left. It's on one of the first boulders and faces east.

Protection

Pads and skill. The cruxes are at the bottom for the regular Tulip Crack and going for and getting into the crack on The Bush Eater variation.
