For a tiny bonus, you can TR the left side of the arete, probably 9+. Beats trying to boulder it. Also, this route feels much easier than the other 8s in the Quarry.

I'm a bit perplexed why this was bolted. Having an anchor at the top is very convenient, but the other two bolts are not needed. With a SR and a #4 Camalot it's as safe as it gets.

When I spout about unnecessary bolts, it's just par for the course and I get ignored.

When Joe "the friendliest guy in the world" Crotty says the bolts aren't needed, I reckon you've bolted something you shouldn't have.
