[Hide Comment] This would be a great if short lead with a couple of bolts. The steepest bit of rock at Quartz, with the largest holds. Apr 4, 2020

[Hide Comment] This previous TR only route is now equipped with two camo stainless steal lead bolts permitted by QMSP. With the FAs blessing, I submitted an application to the bolting committee at the WMCC, they suggested approval to the park, the park then approved my application and supplied a permit to place these bolts.
