Sector 4 - Graffiti Wall
	19	FA ★ Desperate Living	Trad 9m	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Tue 7th Feb 2017
Lead with a number 3 cam in the obvious hole in 'Bomber Choss' and taped to the wall. Bouldery sequence down low leads into the top of 'Bomber Choss'. Questionable rock. Only Car Crash junkies apply!
	22	★ Desperate Living - with Pete	Trad 9m	★ Good	Ben Dickson	Sat 4th Jul 2020
This climbs really excellently, just shame the gear isn't better. Soft for the grade.. soft as in sand.. in a bag. Feels probably closer to 22 (edit: assuming ELV is probably 21) - harder on toprope than ELV was to lead. Quite comparable climbs: about same height, both quite bouldery, but ELV is less sustained.. and has bolts.. and rock that probably wont kill you
	22	FA Big Trouble In Little Vagina	Trad 8m	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Sun 30th Nov 2014
Climbs really nicely, needs more cleaning and traffic to really clean up but once clean this will become quite a nice little addition to the face. Quite technical, with the right amount of punch to make it just right.
	21	FA Bomber Choss	Trad 8m	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Wed 25th Jan 2017
Climbs well. Quite a bit of pro up to about half way then run out to the top on suspicious rock. Not an ideal lead if your just climbing the grade.
	21	Bomber Choss - with Pete	Trad 8m	Average	Ben Dickson	Sat 4th Jul 2020
Don't think this climbs too nicely compared to Desperate Living - the first section is easy if you climb it poorly and just yard up the slopers, the cruxy part through the underclings is nicer. Didn't link this today as it was impossible to see the footers in dark even with head-torch, but felt marginally easier then DL

slowly getting rid of a few embarassing top rope ascents ...
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Doug Brooks	Sat 7th Jan 2006
Could be worth a beer
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Seth	Tue 1st Feb 2005
Not as hard as gonads
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Paul Kinnane	Sun 23rd Nov 2003
A tad soft for the grade if you've got a long reach. Originally top-roped Dec 2001
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Paul Badenoch	Wed 11th Jan 2006
Excellent tricky start and sustained thereafter.
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Adam Clay	Sun 27th Nov 2011
Onsight attempt, took a few drops
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Fri 21st Dec 2012
Dog attempt which failed at the third bolt (not clipped). Just don't know how ti get myself in a comfortable position to clip! Hopefully I make it to the chains next time so I can sequence it together on top rope!
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Igor and Jin	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Justin Case	Mon 4th Nov 2013
From the looks of it, probably the best climb in this crag! Crimpiness and balance with bad feet, crowning with a big deadpoint at the end! Almost an OS, but my foot slipped :S Definitely a really cool line
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Mon 16th Dec 2013
I'll get it clean next time on lead. Very beta specific!
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Tue 17th Dec 2013
2 sits. Next time!

Getting closer one sequence at a time

Fark final hold grab then meltidge
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Guy Moore	Sun 15th Jan 2017
Finally! Perfect conditions this morning helped
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Justin Hill	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Daniel Toone	Sun 19th Feb 2017
Attempted this on top rope. Made it to the top but far from clean. Couple of rests. Did all the moves but now to link them all. Very crimpy down low. Couldn't imagine leading it any time soon
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Thomas Gissing	Sun 16th Apr 2017
Had a looksy and worked out the moves. Skin started hurting and was time to head off. Looking forward to getting back on this one on the next trip down. It's not the Blue Mountains but an awesome way to spend an Easter arvo. This little wall in particular was great - techy, bouldery vert. Nice.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Lee Stiles	Sport 8m, 3	Average	DOT	Wed 18th Jul 2018
Totally onsightable route for me but just did too much climbing beforehand.. Next visit for sure.
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Mitch Slocombe	Sat 27th Oct 2018
Top ok, bottom desperate
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Guy Moore	Fri 15th Feb 2019
Forgot how powerful this is. Love it.
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Guy Moore	Fri 22nd Mar 2019
will be good to try and repeat this next time. still feels solid.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with rod	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Mitch Slocombe	Fri 17th May 2019
latched the finish jug then punted off
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Rob Watson	Sat 29th Jun 2019
Beta sussed, felt hard but should go next time hopefully
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Rob Watson	Fri 5th Jul 2019
So good, 2nd go.
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Maria Bntwl	Wed 6th Nov 2019
Fun sequence!
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Paul Kinnane	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Joanna Lazniewska	Wed 11th Dec 2019
Second session
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Olivier GK	Thu 12th Mar 2020
So close! Clipped into the anchor then fell off. Apparently the accepted end is the jug all the way at the top (2 more moves)
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	pamelalansbury	Fri 12th Jun 2020
Sustained!
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Johnny Utah	Sat 25th Jul 2020
Me like
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Elena, Ollie Dow, Luke Dow	Sport 8m, 3		Laurence Judd	Sat 10th Oct 2020
Had a go of this frosty one. Worked all the moves other than the last to the victory jug.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Luke Dow, Callum Brett	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Laurence Judd	Sun 18th Oct 2020
Got the last move and linked a few more. Still got a lot more work before it will go.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Ross Paynter, Kachow, Mana	Sport 8m, 3		Callum Brett	Sun 5th Dec 2021
hard work, but there's still hope I'll unlock this with time
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Kieran H	Sat 8th Jan 2022
Pretty fun, being taller definitely makes it easier. Third try.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with pamelalansbury	Sport 8m, 3		Laurence Judd	Tue 15th Feb 2022
Completely forgot the moves. Eventually worked them out again and found a better clip position at the top. Get this clean on TR and then go for lead.
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Alex Hayward	Thu 17th Feb 2022
Yeeesh, packs a punch! Crimpy, technical & sustained
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Callum Brett	Sun 10th Apr 2022
progress! got all but 2ish moves free
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Ross Paynter	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Callum Brett	Sat 29th Oct 2022
got some juicy new beta and made it do the second bolt buttery smooth! last couple of sequences also went pretty clean - first time I've been comfortable with all the movement! reckon it's time for a cheeky TR clean next sesh and then start red point burns
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Luke Dow	Sport 8m, 3		Laurence Judd	Thu 3rd Nov 2022
Just got to dial the beta a little more and the lead will go a treat! Felt strong on this today!
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Fri 4th Nov 2022
Worked the moves out, but it was a struggle on lead — can I ever stitch it all together clean, while clipping?! we'll see... I kind of have to dyno the end...
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Ross Paynter	Sport 8m, 3		Laurence Judd	Mon 7th Nov 2022
Got to third clip free. My beta above the 3rd clip did not work in 30C heat.. Found a better clipping position for 3rd bolt tho, thanks Ross.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Laurence Judd	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Mon 7th Nov 2022
First real go at this and pretty happy with it. Tough line and had to hang a bit. Got all the moves.
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street - with Laurence Judd	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Mon 7th Nov 2022
Tried to go for a clean burn on TR. Three or so hangs to top.
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street - with Callum Brett, Laurence Judd, Kachow, Mana	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Thu 10th Nov 2022
First shot and went clean on TR. Stoked to get this. Felt really smooth and fun.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Callum Brett, Laurence Judd, Kachow, Mana	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Thu 10th Nov 2022
Went for the lead burn and was so close to the send. Latched the big throw move at the top but failed to stay on as I brought my foot up. Should have investigated the new foot hold Judd found. Makes that move more stable. This will go next sesh!!
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Callum Brett, Ross Paynter	Sport 8m, 3		Laurence Judd	Thu 10th Nov 2022
Fell at the 3rd bolt again, studied the holds for some time and tried some new feet, with some success.
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Laurence Judd	Thu 10th Nov 2022
Found a juicy new footer that makes the top move static! Much less desperate from the ground now. First time clean and no pump. Lead with new beta next session.
	24	★★ Mercey Street — 2 attempts - with Callum Brett, Ross Paynter	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Laurence Judd	Tue 15th Nov 2022
Killer sequence. Really enjoyable climbing.
	24	★★ Mercey Street — 3 attempts - with Laurence Judd, Ross Paynter	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Callum Brett	Tue 15th Nov 2022
Finally dialled. 3 solid burns today, 3 times I botched it just below the top. RAD TIMES! stoked to get back on it!
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street - with Callum Brett, Laurence Judd	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Tue 15th Nov 2022
Got into a bit of a mess down low but recovered and had a nice clean run to the top. Rad line once you dial the beta. A little strong but surprisingly nice!
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street - with Callum Brett, Laurence Judd	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Tue 15th Nov 2022
Did I re do it for the RP. Yeah I did lol! Such a fun line once you know what you’re doing.
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Laurence Judd, Ross Paynter	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Callum Brett	Tue 22nd Nov 2022
It goes!! Probably been two years since I first pulled on and thought it impossible to getting the red point, albeit with only about 3 sessions of truly working at this. One of the best lines on graff wall, the deadpointy finish definitely motivated me to keep coming back after peeling off there 4/5 timeshaha
	24	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		LJ Nielsen	Wed 7th Dec 2022
What the hell is even that!!!
	24	★★ Mercey Street — 2 attempts - with Josh	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Tue 28th Mar 2023
I really refined the moves today, but still feeling hard to put them together. Clipping the third is pretty hard for me... Dyno in the end is fun and works well for me though!
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Khya	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Sun 16th Apr 2023
getting draws up is always hard on this for me!
	24	★★ Mercey Street - with Khya	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Sun 16th Apr 2023
aha, got my first clean TR ascent on this! Keen to try the lead again.
	24	★★ Mercey Street — 3 attempts - with Amy Trinh	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Bruno Alves Buzatto	Sat 13th May 2023
Yes, finally!!! Kind of — got the last move (which is long, almost a dyno for me) and clipped the anchors from there. Couldn't then pull up and get pass the anchors, so it felt a bit like a semi-send... Amy reckons it's a send though, so I'll take it Will come back with Hugh to try a more glorious finish...
	24	★★ Mercey Street — 2 attempts	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Inaki Voelcker	Thu 8th Jun 2023
Really cool powerful moves, sustained. Feet clean up after the start.
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street - with Charlie Catt	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Ross Paynter	Tue 3rd Oct 2023
Made it clean to the last draw/big move. Found a few ways to make the big move up but didn’t have the ability to move the feet and get the Victory jug. Tried the move a few time but it alluded me. Nice to see the start was still doable although marginal for me
	24 Easy	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3		Moby	Wed 11th Oct 2023
This was a good fight. 8m, so pumped hahaha
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Tue 14th May 2024
This felt pretty hard as well but not as hard as RO. Sustained power crimping. All the moves went free. Took me a moment to recall some of the beta. Such a fun final last move.
	24 Hard	★★ Mercey Street	Sport 8m, 3	★★★ Classic	Ross Paynter	Tue 14th May 2024
Tried it again to see if I could do the moves clean. Still felt sustained for me but only one hang this time
	23	★ Mercy LH	Sport 9m, 3	★★ Very Good	Guy Moore	Sun 1st Oct 2017
Flailing
	23	★ Mercy LH	Sport 9m, 3		Guy Moore	Sat 1st Dec 2018
started as for gonads to the second draw, then busted right to sample the finish of bed for mercy. The last move will be the end of me
	23	★ Mercy LH	Sport 9m, 3		Mitch Slocombe	Sat 12th Oct 2019
Repeat
	23	★ Mercy LH	Sport 9m, 3		Jasper Young	Fri 28th Aug 2020
The bolts on this don't inspire much confidence
	23	★ Mercy LH — 2 attempts - with Callum Brett, Laurence Judd	Sport 9m, 3	★★ Very Good	Ross Paynter	Tue 22nd Nov 2022
Had a lil slip off the start. Went ground up and made the move. Was the same top as for Beg for Mercy which I found enjoyable.
	23 Easy	★ Mercy LH — 2 attempts - with Laurence Judd, Ross Paynter	Sport 9m, 3	★ Good	Callum Brett	Tue 22nd Nov 2022
Not a half bad series of RH sidepulls, should go clean on lead next session!
	23 Easy	★ Mercy LH	Sport 9m, 3	★ Good	Callum Brett	Wed 30th Nov 2022
Pulled on at the end, bit too pumped to do anything but go bolt-to-bolt, but now feel good about the clipping stances for next session!
	23 Easy	★ Mercy LH — 2 attempts - with Ross Paynter, Kachow	Sport 9m, 3	★ Good	Callum Brett	Thu 8th Dec 2022
Almost went, but missed a good footer moving right and flubbed it. Will surely go next session
	23	★ Mercy LH	Sport 9m, 3	★★ Very Good	Ross Paynter	Tue 3rd Oct 2023
Felt rusty but reasonable on this.
	22	★ Gonads RHV	Trad 9m	★ Good	Paul Kinnane	Sun 30th Nov 2003
A couple of nice moves. A pretty tough move at the top leads to bolts with no hangers.
	22	★ Gonads RHV	Trad 9m	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Mon 16th Dec 2013
Pumpy, technical climbing. I'm leading this next time!
	22	★ Gonads RHV	Trad 9m	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Tue 17th Dec 2013
A really good lead. You can protect the bottom section by hanging a really long sling from the high second bolt.
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3		Seth	Tue 1st Feb 2005
Too much footwork!!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Paul Kinnane	Wed 3rd Dec 2003
Tough for the grade. Original Pink-point 03/2003
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Phil Davis	Sat 14th Jun 2008
physical. 2nd try
	23	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	Average	Kristy Smith	Sat 19th Mar 2011
Many rests!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Adam Clay	Sun 16th Oct 2011
Was surprised at how well I went on this, particularly as I did not remember the moves from last time when I dogged it.
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Matthew Broadbent	Thu 12th Jan 2012
Greasy tonight.
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Adam Clay	Sun 2nd Sep 2012
Clean lead - I have no recollection of this route - grey onsight?? Ha ha!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Tue 18th Dec 2012
First session working this. It's actually not as hard as it's made out to be. Sat at every bolt. Dogged it to set up top rope!
	23	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Tue 18th Dec 2012
Sequencing it together from the start. I'll be going for a clean lead next session!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Thu 20th Dec 2012
First shot on this for a clean lead and I absolutely smash it out of the ball park! Went down like a treat. A really nice sequence down low on crimps leads to a bomber rest at the third bolt and an OK sequence to the chains. I like this! My first clean lead at 23 at Car Crash!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Thu 27th Dec 2012
Just didn't have it in me tonight. Died going for the chains after third clip. Starting to think my send of this was a fluke. It couldn't have been because I red pointed it! Guess it's all in the head!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Thu 27th Dec 2012
Retrieving draws for my buddy. Died at third draw. Going for chains was desperate. Pump factor was 150%! Nothing left!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Mon 1st Apr 2013
Quite strong and technical!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Thu 25th Apr 2013
Finally re-sent it! Boo yeah!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Sun 30th Jun 2013
Re-send.
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Thomas Boehm	Mon 28th Oct 2013
Went up the LH variant thinking it was the regular. Felt a lot harder
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Sun 15th Dec 2013
Pumpy especially right at the end of an epic session!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	★ Good	Deleted climber 171388536	Sat 21st Dec 2013
Right hand finish at Mercy Streets chains. Definitely pumpier!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads - with Aaron Keen	Sport 8m, 3	★★ Very Good	Chad Freak	Sat 2nd Jan 2016
Second shot! Stepped on the rope on the first! Fun climbing! It's over quickly!
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	Average	Guy Moore	Thu 7th Jul 2016
Tiny crimps and powerful, a long and strong Boulder problem Feels like years away from this
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	Average	Guy Moore	Sun 17th Jul 2016
Still very hard
	23 21	★ Elephantiasis of the Gonads	Sport 8m, 3	Average	Guy Moore	Sat 23rd Jul 2016
Sorted all the moves today. Then the link and figuring out how on earth to clip!!
