Crawl Daddy

V3-4, Boulder, 15 ft (5 m),  Avg: 2.9 from 18 votes
FA: unknown
Georgia > N E Georgia Region > Mt Yonah > Parking Lot Bou… > Project Boulder

Description

Crux is last couple holds to get over the bulge.

Location

When looking at the Project Boulder (first boulder you hit when taking the shortcut trail from the parking lot), look for a vertical crevasse with lots of chalk on the left hand side that is in the shape of a huge "Y". According to the guidebook, which has seemed to at least be the standard everyone knows about, start here in a Sit Down Start (SDS), go straight up vertical crevasse, traverse left and then over bulge on crimpy jugs.

Apparently "Crawl Daddy" from the guide book pgs 4-5 is a SDS V5 but "Crawl Daddy" from the video I have seen is not a SDS and rated V4. I would not say the SDS makes it a V5 as the SDS on this one is not that difficult. The video I have seen of this climb is rated different from what's in the guide. I will update info if someone will let me know specifics. Would love some input on this one.

Protection

Use a pad as the landing is flat but not all that solid in places

[Hide Comment] I don't see this problem being rated above a V3, including the sit start on flake. Super fun! Feb 12, 2013

[Hide Comment] Uploaded a picture. Regular Crawl Daddy exits out the middle at V3. Alternate Crawl Daddy move further left out the crack and takes an easier exit at V2. If you keep going left at the far end of the crack it's going to be about V1 Jan 10, 2026
