Deadman Lake.  The outlet to the lake must be underwater (or the nearby creek must be fed by a spring instead of the lake)

Following the knife edge ridge up to the crest.  Class 1 for most of the route (a little exposed tho).  Think the usual route is to swing over to the left, but didn't feel comfortable doing that with the loose gravel.  Instead headed directly up over the 2-3 leg to the top.

View southwest from the top of Leavitt Peak.  Feeling a little woozy after gaining ~11500 feet in about 8 hours, but not too bad.  Quite warm and very little wind on the peak.
