Comments: Direct start is a V0 before you're clipped; do it at your own risk. The rest is 5.6.

Comments: So the route is called Mercy Drilling, but all holds are natural? Me confused.

Comments: Stich, 70 meter ropes are pretty standard nowadays. Using your logic, nothing over 80 feet would be bolted, because that's the most you can handle with a 50 meter rope.

Comments: Methinks that's 15. #16 is the one with the roof.

Comments: Beware of TR-ing this. My rope either got rubbed against an edge or got stuck in an undercling above the roof, but I had to cut 15 feet off.

Comments: Is this the route that shares the first 3 bolts with Early Bird? Based on the bolt count it should be, but neither the book nor this site says so.

Comments: The big block before going to the anchors seems loose. Would be scary if it fell.

Comments: Jon, I think what you were missing at the second to last hold is that it's much easier to go right and use crimps rather than go left into that crack that has the ton of chalk in it. That way it's a 10a to me.

Comments: Are you supposed to start this from the ground or from the boulder? It seemed way harder than 10d either way.

Comments: Nice feature, one move wonder before the anchors. Do those who say it's a 5.9 think that the last move goes at that ? I don't.

Comments: Pretty much what Justin said.
Pulling the first roof is a nice move, but feels somewhat contrived, because we went out right first before hand traversing back above the bolt to pull the roof.
We both went out right after the second bolt from the end. Going left to the slab under the roof was a nice move, but seemed like you don't have any feet. And we skipped the last bolt; it's in an unreachable location.

Comments: There's a new 10d at the end of the wall. How do I add it here ?

Comments: You'll be at The Banks Campground Group site if you top out this route. It's only 10 feet of climbing and one 5.8 move above the anchors, but look out for the loose stones up there.
