(p) Godzilla Face

California > Tahquitz & Suic… > Suicide Rock

Description

This face has only a small number of routes. However, some of those routes are classics. It starts part way up the rock, so the approach is a bit involved.

Getting There

Climb The Escalator past the crux, and then along the easy chimney to a large ledge. The prominent overhangs above you mark the Godzilla Face.
