Carlo Torres, aged 16, pulling down on Face Off ci...
Description
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.
Great route, might take a few tries to work out the sequence on this one. Also the name is a bit of a misnomer since for the 12a grade the arete is off in the middle of route, making things a little bit harder.
