Noticed that it appears to be complete now. The orange/red flagging "blocking" the first bolt was removed and the anchor has chains now(iirc for a while it was a red sling) in addition to a few more middle bolts I didn't remember being there previously. Its between "The Plays the Thing" and "Frailty thy name is Sandstone" Anyone know the info on it?

Installed by Doug Dye over 2 sessions back in May 2015. No name that I know of as yet. We thought 5.10 if you go direct over the bulge above the first clip and 5.7 if you bail right and up, putting you within clipping distance of a bolt on the next right line. I believe 5 clips to the chains.

Appreciate the info man i was eying it up and had the classic "It doesn't look so bad" moment but thought Id hunt down some more info on it before taking a crack at it. Let me know if a name surfaces. thanks again.
