To the left of the large recess on the corner overlooking the Lion's Rump is a blocky protruding face. It is this face that has the lichenous white patch on it from which White Face derives its name. The route starts up a crack to the left of the middle of this face.
P1 - 10m, 4c: Climb the crack, which has an undercut start, to a narrow ledge about 6m up. Walk right along the ledge for 3-4m to belay where the ledge widens.
P2 - 18m, 5a: Climb up just left of the corner on the right of the ledge tending left to a higher ledge. Walk left to a thin free-standing block; step off this and mantelshelf up the short wall above. Climb to the overhang and pass this on the right. Continue to the ledge above. The next pitch starts up the face to the left of the obvious corner on pitch 5 of Sea-Point Face.
P3 - 40m, 5a: Climb the overhanging face on good grips until able to move around the corner on the left. Continue up just left of the corner close to White Face's final pitch. Scrambling leads to the summit.
