Hand/Finger cracks at Vedauwoo
|
So we all know about the off-widths at Vedauwoo, and I plan on getting spanked on some in a couple weeks but... what are the consensus best finger to hand cracks at the woo? |

Pooh Corner, Climb and punishment |

Haven't done a ton there but Beefeater, Spectreman, Climb and Punishment, Friday 13th, Hung Like a Horse, Max Factor were all fantastic. |

Baobob Tree, Ed's crack, MRC Direct, Screw has great hands sections, captain nemo first pitch, after the offwidth on middle parallel space it is amazing hands, plumb line, lichen lung, small wide section, anatomy lesson has a bit of everything, Skull has some sweet hands, nitrogen narcosis... There's so many good climbs there!! Have fun. |
|
I don't understand?????? You don't want to simply do OW???? |
|
Thanks all I look forward to it....haha Mia, we'll see how the first few go, a lack of wide gear will be the biggest issue but we'll get some done for sure! |
|
I would add Flying Buttress (a little OW at the top, but the whole route is just hands and fist). |

if the weather is hot, one of my favorite places is gorilla rock (north side of reynolds hill). a couple good hand cracks - slash or gash (can't remember which one) is about 10b with a good hand crack flake/roof. there is also a steep tigh hands crack to the right (bad girls something or other). then a little further right is nice little 11a finger crack called gloria. |
|
Fingers; Moonsalt, Maxfactor, 4th of July, Hands;Spectreman cannot be missed |
|
Boardwalk is excellent. I'd Rather Be in Philadelphia is also good. Soft Parade too. |
|
Le Petit Arbre 5.8+ in Blair. Easy for the Voo. |
|
Max Factor, Climb and Punishment, Friday the 13th, Hung Like a Horse, Jet Stream |
|
Cool Hand Luke is a really nice climb, and the crux is a fantastic 15 feet of overhanging flaring thin hands/ringlocks. There's a short section of offwidth, too.
GO |
|
The first pitch of Captain Nemo is a great 5.8 hand crack |
|
On the easy side, Maiden. |

Plumb Line and Plumb Line Crag was a lot of fun IMO. If you are feeling feisty you could also try the infamous Big Pink. |
