Good point. The anchors directly above Kestrel are probably redundant now that the rap route from Flinders Lane heads directly down the wall just to the left. Another advantage of the new rap descent is that you can get down on a single 60m rope in two abseils (unlike the 50m abseil above Kestrel which requires two ropes).

Perhaps the only reason to keep the Kestrel rap there is if people are climbing the routes next door, in which case you would be rapping over them.
