Description 

As you walk up to The Thing Boulder, this problem is found on the side facing the road the most. look for the vertical stripe of quartz, and three inches to the left is a small chunk of awkward rock that serves as a crimp/sidepull/half pocket. this is your left starting hand.
to the right is a lower crimp cut-out on top of a huge, deep red stone in the boulder. this is the right hand.
get feet on and traverse right and up to the top through far away ledges and feet. on top is two spaced apart knobs for the top out. the top slab is good for the pinching, and accepted top out technique.
