I would suggest that you bring more than a set of nuts on this one. The crux is protected by either some finger cams or a #3 camalot in a horizontal. There is a large runout low on the route that only accepts small BD swedges, RP's were not stable.

Horizontal will take the shallow #3 camalot mentioned by Guy and also takes a tight 0.5 purple camalot (grey might have worked). Crux is between the gear and next bolt. 60m rope needed if going to top anchors which are brand new stainless (thank you to whoever updated them). Two-rope rappel.
