The bolts and anchors are bad, yes, but this route does not deserve the "really trashy" description in the guidebook. There are way way worse routes at Red Wing, with worse protection. The moves on it are actually kind of fun.
But just to be safe, I highly recommend anchoring the belayer to a tree far away from the base of the route. 1 Star, 10c
