The left bolt at the anchor flexes visibly under body weight.

Both bolts seemed fine though not pointed in the correct direction for the least amount of stress. It was late when I was up there so I didn't fix it but I will next time I climb the route.

You can set top rope (or walk off) on this one however I would use caution and anchor in to one chain before trying to set them both up.

For as much as you complain about bolts you would think you were a trad climber.

For as much as you post right after I do on routes you aren't ticking you'd think you were following me :)

There is a difference between posting an observation and complaining, something to keep in mind for the next comment of mine you comment on. Be well brother.

Looks like the right anchor bolt is loose. We hand tightened, but if you have a tool with you, bring it.

Very fun little route. Good climb for someone just starting to lead as there is a bolt every few feet. Also once you do this you can TR the 5.8 next to it.

The anchors and hangers have been pulled from Lords of Karma and Pali Gap due to a report from a climber of loose bolts. Yesterday, I checked all of the anchors, hangers and bolts by shock loading them with a Grigri backup and could find no loose bolts. Some of the hangers and one of the anchors needed routine tightening. I don't think there is anything wrong but shut down the routes and pulled the anchors and hangers

Bummer that you shut down the routes. While I agree the rock quality isn't the greatest I doubt the routes were unsafe.

That said I appreciate that you are maintaining the crag and watching out for our safely.

I climbed this on 9.17.2011 and the bolt were fine. These were the 2 easiest routes on this wall regardless of what the #'s say. I urge you to re-open this route!!! It's FUN!!!!!
