Trad in Elevenmile

Snuck off to Elevenmile today to hop on a few cracks that I spotted on a previous trip.  Tim and I each got on two cracks.  The first being a stealer offwidth to perfect hand crack and the second being an amazing left trending dihedral.  We set up a top rope on the second and neither one of us sent, but the climb moves amazing well on thin crimp liebacks.  With a little cleaning up and maybe the placement of a bolt to protect the 5.12 feeling face climbing where your gear is 20 feet below you, the climb could be a great lead.
