Description

As a two-pitch climb, Let's Face It is a T-Wall rarity, though it can easily be done as a single pitch with a 70-meter rope. Nice exposure, challenging for the grade and very worthwhile.

P1: At a left-facing corner, either climb a large crack on the left face (easier), or up the ante by following the corner with a varying crack to a large ledge. 40', 5.7+
P2: Follow a pretty orange corner up past blocks to a large roof. Traverse left under the roof, then continue up a vegetated left-facing corner past dirty ledges to the top. 60', 5.7+

Location

Starts about 10' left of Steeplechase/Super Slide. Two-rope rap will get you down in one rap, or two raps with a single.

Protection

Several #4s fit in the off width for the first pitch which also fits a #5. If you're a skilled off width leader, the you may only need one or two big pieces. If you are a 5.7 climber, you'll need several large pieces, as many as 3 or 4. The second pitch only requires a standard rack. There are tied slings on a chalk stone at the ledge; however, the stone may not be stable. It is possible to build a trad anchor above this. If you want to see your follower though, you'll have to extend the anchor so that the belayer can see over the edge.
