Welcome to the first annual 2022 Northern California's Strongest Highlander! We are beyond excited to have you join us. Please see below for event rules and information.

Keg Over Bar - Each athlete will have two attempts at each height to yeet the keg over the bar. If the athlete misses the attempt, they will have ONE chance at a do-over of that height. Highest cleared height will win the event. In the event of a tie, count backs and entering height will be used as the tiebreaker. Belts, elbow and knee sleeves, wrist wraps, and chalk are permitted.

Log Clean and Press - Each athlete will have 60 seconds to clean and press each rep of the log. You must wait for the "down" command from your judge for the rep to count.

Natural Stone Carry - Each athlete will have 60 seconds to pick and carry the natural stone as far as they can. If the stone is dropped then that is your final distance. If you attempt to yeet the stone for extra distance you will be penalized. Repeat, do not attempt to yeet the stone for extra distance. Wrist wraps, elbow and knee sleeves, belt, and chalk are permitted. If you have any tacky of any kind on you during this event, you will get a big old ZERO. Don't be a cheating butt-head.
