As expected, dry conditions the entire way & forecasted strong, gusty winds 
made for sporty times on the narrow sections. The most difficult part was after 
we'd unroped and were hiking up to the false summit. As my partner put it; "it 
was like walking uphill in water". Windy!

I suspect this is old news but the bolt hangers are missing from the anchor at 
the top of the initial true pitch & also on most of the handful of bolts along 
the ridge crest.
