Description 

Hollow Man is an enjoyable moderate, which makes a great 195t lead. There is still a little bit of lichen, so watch your footing.

P1: Hollow Man starts up mossy ledges just to the left of Handcrack-A-rete. After 25ft, you climb a great flake system on the left wall which starts out at 1 inch and widens to 4 inches. Clip one bolt on the way to a double bolt anchor. (5.8, 100ft)

P2: The second pitch heads up the blunt arete with 6 bolts for protection with good position. (5.8, 95ft)

Rap twice with a 60m rope. You should rap to the second set of anchors on the first rap from the top of the climb.

Location
