5.11? Can't be.

[dagibbs]

I climbed a recently put up and labelled as "5.11" route at Coyote today. Took one fall, but it feels like I should be able to send it in another try or two. And, while I've felt like I've been climbing pretty well the last while, I'm also not climbing well enough to be sending 5.11. I think they either mis-set for what they were aiming for, or mis-rated the route. This is on one of the new walls they've recently finished, and Andy (one of the guys who's been there for a while) says they still don't quite have the hang of judging how hard/easy routes are on the new walls, which are just barely overhanging. I'd have to agree they don't quite have the judgement right.
