I'm new to the area and have very little gear. It sounds like a good number of the routes have fixed anchors for top roping. Is that true? I'd love to get out there soon without having to buy a set of cams. Does anyone have suggestions for a minimalistic rack that could get you two good days of climbing? Thanks.

I haven't been there in a long time, but AFAIK they have installed bolts at the top of the walls. I believe they are spaced out from each other and set back from the edge, so some long webbing and/or static cord (plus some biners) should be all you need to set up some top rope rigs.
