Anti-Face is a short, easy hike in Oregon's Philomath Unit, about 0.11 miles long and rising just 26 feet from a starting point of roughly 886 feet. The route is so brief that it works as a quick stop or a warm-up before exploring the trails around it. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Corvallis show July and August highs in the low 80s with only about four wet days a month, while winter months bring highs in the mid-40s and rain on more than 20 days. The hike takes about half an hour. Upper Dan's Trail and Extendo Trail both lie about half a mile away, and Homestead Trail is about 0.7 miles off. Paddlers can reach the East Channel Willamette River about 5 miles away.
