La Coca Highball

V5-, Boulder,  Avg: 2.8 from 6 votes
FA: unknown
Colorado > Colorado Springs > Mt Herman > Highball Boulder

Description

The crux is going from the end of the route La Coca up above the overhang. This has big, blind moves and requires precise feet. Some holds higher up sound hollow when hitting them, so don't trust one hold too much! It is still a great route, though.

Location

On the [East] (per Sean Scott) side of the Highball Boulder, traverse under the "nose", and then go up and diagonally to the left to the top.

Protection

At least two pads and a spotter.

[Hide Comment] Great little rig. The best on the boulder in my opinion. A pad and a spotter makes it much more enjoyable. Mar 17, 2016
