Description 

In the cave of the Freedom Boulder is a poor crimp. Using this with the right hand, jump left for the lip. After some heelhooking, a somewhat sketchy finish up the slab, just left of the corner proper. A more direct finish exists going straight up the corner.

There has been debate about this problem's rating. I suspect if you are much shorter than 5'8", you are going to take the V10 rating.

Protection 

A few pads. The landing is uneven and rocky and the slabby section is awkward.
