In Your Face

About

In Your Face is a sport climbing route located in Rifle Mountain Park, west of Denver. The area features limestone walls from the Leadville formation, offering climbing that ranges from slightly overhanging to very steep. This specific route is classified as difficult and sits under a large roof. It requires seven bolts leading to a two-bolt lower off, with some uncertainty regarding the presence of chains. The crux involves powerful, dynamic moves located halfway up to the belay, with large holds at the top. The route is accessible year-round, though weekends from May through September are crowded. Parking is available at the site, and pets are permitted. The elevation of the climbing area is approximately 5,770 to 7,085 feet. Climbers should expect long, complex endurance routes on large flat holds, pockets, and crimps.
