At the intersection of Highway 421 and Highway 105 Extension (there will be big overhead "interstate-type" signs to help with directions), turn left on Highway 105 Extension.

In less than one half mile, Watauga High School is located at 400 High School Drive off of Highway 105 South in Boone, where packet pickup on Friday is located.
