Well, the application is technically complete, but I’m still wondering how “spicy” is the 5.12/5.13 climbing to the top (ie how far “below your feet” is the nest of gear and is there anything to hit). I know this terrain is easier than the 5.14 crux, but only a grade or two – I’d think a ground up climber could still fall. The locals working on this have been headpointing this far. I’m not opposed to the route but just want to know if there should be two bolts on this route instead of one?
