I guess someone needs to get on up there before the bolts fall out on their own.

No fair.....you guys had more soul. More freakin' VISION.
We're just a buncha hacks.Just speakin' for the Royal "We".
That's an outrageous route.
Maybe enlist some of the new blood, those "rad" boys.
Shame 'em, if ya have to.
Maybe they can only climb hard without the dire consequences.
Just sayin'.....

So many times, I thought I was going over backwards. After the climb I had a scab on my nose from turning my head to look for my foot holds.

"I resized the photos and added some others. I hope that they are a little quicker to download for the people with land lines." I remember the original post with the huge photos , is that still searchable (link please) ?

K-man and I had a discussion about this route last night. It seems like no one will go up there because of the questionable bolt situation. We thought you would at least need new belays to make it feasible. And somewhere on here Roger Brown stated that he wouldn't replace bolts there because he wouldn't know which ones to replace. It seems like to head up there to repeat this route you either need new anchors and some lead bolts or a will to just go for it.
We got to thinking when is Honnold gonna have a go at this solo. Seems pretty close to the ultimate climb, Karma 2nd ascent free solo. He wouldn't have to worry about bolt replacement at all.
