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.

The Hardees Over

Hurricane Ky

Start on the obvious start jug with a small tree growing from it, and go straight up on small crimps and a big move.

Sandbag.  This is a beautiful shield of fine granite split in two by a striking, right-leaning, finger crack.  Slightly overhanging, it starts out of an A-frame, then bomber locks lead to a nasty, flared hands crux.  Impressive that Scarpelli did this, it would be a positively awful size for him all the way until the final hand jam.  Come back here in the fall, when all the aspens are changing.  It gets spectacular late afternoon light.  It is well worth the walk.  Do it!

The Hardee's Over, named after a recently closed Laramie restaurant is a groove with several well defined horizontal ledges leading to a right leaning finger crack. The finger crack intersects a hand-widthed groove, followed by a squeeze with fists in the back. Romp up to the obvious and spacious ledge system with a two bolt anchor.

Hurricane Ky (Greek χ or Chi) is steep! The route is essentially hands all the way on a steep, right-angling crack. There is a new anchor on top as of 10/21/17. Considering it is right next to a project, I am surprised it appeared unclimbed. If it has been climbed, let me know. This is a great warm-up for

Fingorilla
