The second pitch takes the 2 biggest wild country hexes very nicely.

The traverse is piss easy, but it is hard to see the bolts (aim for the bush about 12m up and 30m accross).

I string the 4th and 5th pitch together, its very easy and avoide a semi hanging belay. For the last pitch, I always do the 17 variant, its airy and really fun, you will need a ~#4 wild country nut for near the top (to avoid a run out). The variant that goes straight up from the belay and then left to the 17 is also bolted (still needs the nut up the top). As far as I know, the original 13 finish is still all trad.

While in the bluies recently I had the intention of replacing the anchor bolts with double ring hangers (currently carrots), but it was wet the whole time so I could not do this. Mabye next year.
