Vacaville (Nut Tree Boulders) |
|
Bay Area Bouldering, California, USA
Approach time: 5-15 minutes
Season: Year Round Number of problems: 50 Type of rock: Basalt Overview
A plethora of basalt boulders cover the peaceful grassy hills inside Vacaville Open Space. Vaca means cow in Spanish, so don’t be surprised to see a lot of happy California cows grazing all around the trails and boulders. Small stone walls built around the boulders are to keep the cows from crapping and making potholes under the problems, so please do not tip the walls over (or the cows). High enough above the suburban sprawl that you can barely hear a lawn mower or a school bell, these boulders are always a nice place to hang out with great views of the Sacramento Valley and on a clear enough day, even the snow capped Sierra. Bay Area climbing legend Scott Frye did the hardest problem, Scott’s Traverse V7/9. Notable Bouldering Problems
Stonewall Traverse V1, The Stonewall V0, Bloody Madness V2, Stoned Dangler V6, Scott’s Traverse V7 or V9, Forty Oz. Traverse V6, Gimme My Forty Sucka V1, Mother Nature V1R, Motherfucker Traverse V4-V5, Space Lord V1 Photos
