Looking down at the "11a" bulge on P2. This is where the #3 or #4 would be useful. Otherwise you have to pull the crux while run out.

P3 anchor now has two good bolts.
The climbing leaving the P3 anchor used to be ~20ft of unprotected 5.9 slab straight off the belay. This pitch had real factor two potential and was legit dangerous IMO. I added a bolt a few feet up and right of the belay to mitigate this.
Looking up P3 past the new bolt, to the updated anchor. The climbing traverses hard right at the bolt (out of frame), then up and back left to the flake. An okay #1 can be placed behind the flake.
Best pitch on the route!! The pin with the blue carabiner has been replaced with a bolt.
