FYI,Both Goat routes end at the 3 bolt belay. One wonders at first why they elected to install 3 bolts here, but Brian informed me it was wet that day and they were concerned wuth longevity and seeking a place under an overhang where the gear would stay fairly dry.

Also, one notices a huge length of chain (like 20feet!) directly about 50 feet across to the left of this anchor. I couldn't figure out what this was, and first thought it was for the ice climbing in the winter. I was incorrect, and after talking with Brian, it was installed to secure a huge boulder up there! It would be a killer, for sure, so thanks to Jonathan and Brian for doing this. Much appreciation! Please do not think, as I first did, that it was alot of chain waiting to be kipped....it does serve a purpose!

There's more fixed gear than Bryan mentions. We found:
P1: 2 bolts, 1 pin
P2: ditto, rap anchor(2bolts) @ end
P3: bolt, 2 pins in crack (quite vegetated--bummer)
P4: 4 bolts
P5: 1 pin marking where you climb thru the trees
P6: 2 bolts
P7: 3 bolts

Used sm/med nuts, 00 to #3 camalot, long runners, and draws.

Be prepared for some stimulating bolt spacing on P7 especially, as the rock is really polished. Also, there was a water/slippery moss crossing before the belay on P2--good times.

Thanks Smoots.
