I climbed Absinthe of Mallet today and several of the large belay station anchor bolts were loose, could spin nut and wiggle the bolts in the rock. We rappeled down Stampede on the saem dome, and 3rd belay station was in bad shape, both bolts were extremely loose, could spin nuts and wiggle bolt in the rock. We backed it up the belay to the nearest bolt with a long piece of webbing. If you are planning on doing the route, you should bring a small cresent wrech with you to tighten the bolts so they are safe!!
