The top bolts are BAD PRACTICE. There is a single bolt/hanger with a double rap ring set on it directly above the climb. Then 2 bolts/hangers approx. 2.5 away with nothing on them. May 3, 2021

As of September 25 the two belay anchor bolts now have chains for rapping. The single bolt that is to the left of the belay is for a directional to keep the rope from wedging into the crack should the follower weight the rope. This bolt still has unneeded welded rings as they are not removable. Sep 26, 2023
