Description 

This is an awesome highball line up the right side of the boulder. Stand start on or around the rightmost ledge and use big holds on the arete to stand on the ledge. Use small holds and sketchy feet to reach out left to a two finger pocket and cross to jugs all the way to the finish.

Location 

Go up the approach canyon to Contest Wall about 300 feet past the trail leading up to contest. Veer right towards Freeform Wall after a bit, and you'll see it looming above you.

Protection 

There's a solid landing for the top section, but the most likely place to fall is reaching for the two finger pocket and barndooring into vegetation. This can be done with one pad and spotters, but two or three pads would be ideal.
