Face Off

A fantastic steep, thin face route. For most it requires a sequence. Careful not to tweak your fingers on this one. The steep face is obvious with its chalk-marked, tiny holds.

Scramble up easy rock to the high first bolt and move up to the second bolt as the rock starts to steepen. Pull past the thin flake holds to a good two-finger pocket next to the third bolt. More thin, steep moves lead past the fourth bolt. It's sustained all the way to the sixth bolt but above that you finally get to rest before cruising the easier terrain to the top.

Steep face right of Thief in Time and "RDD Crack". Shown as route number 20 on the Overlook route topo photo.

7 bolts to a bolted anchor.
