Sit/Squat start on two good right-facing angles. Go up to slopers, crimps, and slopey crimps on the slabby upper section. Stand start using the sloper crimps for a V0.

Stand/Squat start with at least 1 hand on a diagonal undercling block, trend left and up, or slightly right for Marshall Right variation (2 distinct lines, with no shared holds after the start, are possible here, albeit contrived), V1. Stand start on holds at head height, V0/V0+. Sit start with right hand somehow grabbing that undercling block for an awkward V2/3.

Stand start with crimps at head height, or the even smaller ones over head high that angle to the right. Work out left to a flat crimp a couple feet below the lip, then straight up to top out. You can come in from the Marshall low start for a V2-3.

Sit start matched on the nice little edge on the SE corner. Go big up and left to a crimp on the lip, then follow the lip of the Hardman Traverse back right to finish just right of the top of the prow. Some people sit start with right hand on the corner edge and left hand on a crimp way out left at the same level, similar grade.

Lowball problem located on the southwest side of the Southern Gimme boulder.  Sit start on good holds in the bowl, traverse up and right using slopers to get to the top of the arete. Turn the corner on large jugs at highest point of boulder and top out.

Sit start with a good higher right hand and ok lower left hand, go up slightly left to better holds and a very nice finger slot/edge, top out just left of little arete feature. Stand start for a V0.

Sit start matched on a good edge at the SE corner of the boulder. Set up for a slap right, then go up to the top-out jug. 

It's a traverse with several possibilities (best to worst, IMHO): Left to Right: start matched on big, bumpy ledge near left end of north face (as per Shaved Chakra), traverse with feet just above ground level, finish at right end high point (as per Will). Right to Left: Start 3/4 to right end with good right angling incut edge and ok lower left hand (as per Will), go up then left with feet near the ground, finish just before left arete (as per Shaved Chakra). Variations (any combo of these options): R to L: start far right on boulder and/or finish at left arete. Problem 13a on beta photo L to R: start on left arete and/or finish far right on north face where boulder is shorter. Problem 13b R to L long version: continue around the left arete onto the east face. V5, Land of the Lost, if you stay below the lips and use the smaller face holds and finish as per Holly (see beta photo). Problem 13c

Squat/Stand start matched on good ledge, make a couple of moves up to a lip, then lower angle rock to the top.

The Gimmes are an obvious stand-alone small cluster of boulders just south of Waterfall Wall. Two main boulders with climbs: North Gimme Boulder AKA North Pylon Boulder, and South Gimme Boulder.
