Isaac Caldiero, more known as a boulderer than a route climber, has done a free solo ascent of Boone Speed's The Present, 8b+, at the Gorilla cliffs, St. George, Utah. By today's standards, it could very well pass as a highball if well padded. Like I said, it's high but not death high.
Check Isaac's blog for the full story.
It seems the Gorilla cliffs suit boulderers consiering Paul Robinson did the 2nd ascent of Psychedelic at the very same spot a couple of days ago.
