Perhaps the most famous of the rock faces in the Tafroute area "The Lions Face" above the small village of Assgaour.First ascended by Paul Ross and Les Brown in March 1995. The route over a 1000'at about 5.8+ takes a line up the center of the face.In the evening light the lions face is very prominent.
