Bolted Anchors at Hyalite?

Anyone know if Hyalite has bolted anchors that could be set up without lead climbing? Was considering a trip, but looked at the page on here and didn't see any mention of it so assuming not. 

Don't trust myself to build anchors off trees just yet :)

Just got back from my first trip there. The two easy to get to areas we went to (Genesis and the Amphitheatre) have lots of tree anchors fixed in place. You can hike to the top of either of these areas. I suspect the same is true of others.

It's getting there. 50 to 60 took a while. 60 to 70 is happening right now. Pat yourself on the back for being 'cutting edge'.

Go do some FAs 75+m between stations and set the standard. Make it impossible for the 70m crowd to follow in your footsteps.

Wut?

I’m pretty much climb on a 70 with little issue. Unless other specifically known routes require otherwise

There is one bolted anchor in Hyalite that’s easily accessible by walking around. It’s at the top of G1. Everything else is either trees (mostly fixed, usually in good shape but check em before weighting), a bolted anchor that requires significant shenanigans for top access, a route that requires leading, or some combination thereof.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
