Description
Third bolt line from the left. I felt that The Shunned was fairly difficult for the grade, maybe more like .10a, and it wanders a bit. Start right of the first bolt, on thin edges, working to the left after the first bolt to get atop the ledge. Clip the second bolt and then: If you have a reach above 7-6 you can work straight up and grab the lower knob. Since my reach is about 7-2 I had to traverse right from the ledge, working up on thin edges, then back to the left to gain the knobs and position for the third bolt. From there its easy sailing to the anchor. A bit heady on lead but a fun climb! Rappel to descend.
