Just wondering if anybody knows anything about the routes up there. There's one line that looks bolted all the way up though I can't see the anchors and two other lines that seem to terminate a few bolts up. Anybody know the who/when/why on this?
As I walked up my first though was "Slabba-Dabba-Doo", I can't see many people hiking up there to climb it, I was surprised to see any bolts.
Thanks! I didn't see anything in STL that looked like it and it doesn't seem like it's had any traffic in a LONG time, there was a bail quick link on the second bolt that was pretty rusty. Also looked like there was room for a few more routes up there that were pretty obvious so I thought somebody gave up on the area, the approach was like a runout from the car to the first bolt.

I have no plans on bolting anything up there. It looked like a ghost town that's the reason I asked here.
I did look in the book Eric, seemed SPV was the best way to get up there and using that as a reference point I missed it. I also had it upside down so that might have been part of the issue though it normally reads the same either way.
