Description

This massive boulder is the main attraction of the formation, and one of the tallest boulders in Wagon Wheel. It hosts multiple bolted routes, including the classic Eliminator. Most people would probably want to lead/TR this block, although it is definitely within the realm of highball bouldering.

Getting There

From the Tombstones, head Southwest about 100 meters to the next formation. The Vaino boulder is the largest in the cluster, with a tall slightly-overhung North face (The Eliminator).
