To the right of the Contrast Corner Project (about 6ft to the right of the corner on the long steep face side) look for the underclings. 

  Stand start in the easy looking but shallow and nasty underclings. Move up to seemingly better (but they arent) holds to trend into a doable looking sequence (that is actually pretty hard) to the slopey top out... I never made it to the top out.  

  I tried and cleaned some of this line but the start sequence was really tough. The entire upper section may be v8 with the first couple starting moves being v10ish? Good luck, please post if you do this rig!

Worth the Squeeze

On the corner arête to the right of "physical therapy" and "lightning Mcqueen". Start low matched in the seam with a heel hook. Pop up with a left hand to a credit card crimp. Move off the crimp to the slopey lip above and either top out direct and move far and right traversing the lip to a distant techy top out. Joe Gruss FA.

Sit start in the middle of the main downhill face on the obvious, lower jug ledge (same as Lightning Mcqueen). Traverse low and right under the steep face via slopers and a perfect pinch loaf (with the cool brick read stripe that runs along the bottom). Once you get to the bomber jug/pocket out left. Climb up and out the steep face using the excellent crimp on the upper face. Trend left to use the crystally deep pocket that leads to better feet.

Lightning Mcqueen is trickier than it looks, and slopers are the name of the game here. 

  This is below a seam that can often be dirty or wet during a period of frequent rains. Have a toothbrush handy just in case the holds are a little dirty. 

  On the middle of the downhill-most face you will find a low obvious jug to sit start matched on. 

  pick up to get a good right heel hook and climb through the slopers above using a right hand crimp side pull along the way. This will lead you into more slopers at the seam overhead. Climb up and right at the corner with another good crimp rail on the right wall of the corner to finish out. 

SDS on large orange side-pull rail chunk that is low on the far right, uphill side of the boulder. pull up to the base of the big diagonal crack, match here and then pull onto the face proper and make your way though some smaller holds to the sloper rail up high (the same rail which is eventually used on "worth the squeeze"). Follow this to the right and top out.

To the left of "Squeeze With Ease"There are some interesting smooth black splotches on the face where this problem stand starts.

  Stand start on high left crimp and lower right side-pull. Get feet on and fire up and left to a slopey crimp. Heel hook and follow a rail up and right for several moves (the same high rail you use for "squeeze with ease) to the top. 

The Contrast Boulder AKA "Choss Boulder" (due to the fact that it was underestimated for quite some time) is a large, steep boulder that sits inclined and long ways on the hillside past the Shadow Cast Boulder. Contrast is about a 12 minute walk down the trail up on the hillside to the left of the stream. 

  This boulder has fairly good landings and the lines here are unique. The faces look heavily featured but most holds are practically unusable due to their angle and the steep inclination. This aspect affords the possibility for really difficult grades and challenging movement. Expect tricky holds varying from slopers, crimps, pinches, underclings, pockets, knobs, and seams.
