What exercises do you perfort to ensure really good trap development?
 
I love a combination of incline shrugs and barbell shrugs. Make sure to incorporate bent rows to hit the back/bottom of the trap. Hope that helps :)
 
my personal favorite is hang cleans but since I dont do those anymore Id say shrugs,deads and upright rows
 
Dumbell shrugs, Barbell shrugs to the front and back built the bulk of mine. And deadlifts are doing pretty good for them now as well. Though traps was always my best growing body part and the first to be noticeable on my skinny frame. Sometimes Id hit 12 sets for traps alone, but often I did 6-8 sets a week as well. Between 12-15 reps per set.

besides deads and rows, do various shrug exercises...

wide grip barbell shrugs - sets of 10, increase weight until you can no longer do a set of 10 (peak builders)
close grip barbell shrugs - 2 sets of 10 at a comfortable weight, not to heavy or to light
db shrugs - help widen your traps

enough.
