Description
Suspender Man is easy to find. Hike east along the base of the cliff until you come to a huge slab of limestone leaning up against the main wall. Suspender Man tackles the back side of this slab. It's a fun (though short) route on cool overhanging pockets - and it's unbelieveably slippery. Very different from most of the stuff at the Dark Side, and definitely worth doing.
Protection
Can't remember if it's 4 or 5 bolts. I think it's 4. 2 bolt anchor at the top.

A stick clip is wise for the first bolt, and prehanging the draw on the second bolt makes that clip a lot less reachy. Aug 25, 2008

Really fun route though...didn't feel THAT polished...lots of chalk yes, but the holds are big enough and positive enough that it didn't pose an issue. Sep 29, 2008
