Description 

The Southwest Face is slightly shorter and less steep than the South Face with several moderate cracks and a couple of sport routes. Morning shade and then sun until fairly late in the day.

The Turret (5.8), Ball And Chain (5.10a) and Holy Fingers (5.11b) are the climbs to seek out here.
