The side of Cavity rock facing Toy Boat has 4 bolted routes (as of the date climbed). This is the furthest route to the left as facing the rock. Follow the bolts to a short chimney. Anchors at top of chimney. Very fun!

The anchors have been lowered so to not have to do the last few feet of the chimney

This is a very fun route with a good friction move about half way up. good climb to introduce people to black hills friction. having the anchors lower is nice.

8 or 9 draws? Not too sure about that. I did not climb this route because someone was on it. But all the routes on this side of rock has 3 or 4 bolts?

The route is fun to do and has 5 bolts to the anchors. Putt Putt Toot Toot (5.7) is directly west of Stormy Night on the back of Toy Boat I and there's a 5.4 and a 5.3 on the back of Toy Boat II. Again, I don't know their names. I agree this is a nice spot for introducing climbers to the Needles or for someone's first lead. The climbs are very short so easy to bail from if weather threatens.

If you follow the bolts up (the picture shows someone going up just left)it feels harder than 5.7
