I'm going to second the opinion that Enhancement is overrated. I leveled as elemental and had a blast (pew pew) doing it. Up until this last patch, I would have said don't go over 31 points in elemental for a leveling build. It would have looked like this

. Then you would have put the next 30 into Restoration. With the 2.3 changes, Lightning Overload might actually be worth taking now, so you would end up staying in the Elemental tree until 49 and your build would look like this

. This would also leave you enough points to get Nature's Swiftness out of Restoration. You could move those 4 points in Unrelenting Storm to Reverb if you wanted. Either way, they are mostly just filler to get to LO.

yeah, lightning overload is much better now than it used to be. however, I'd like to point out that, for lvling purposes, if he followed your build, he still wouldn't be able to get natures swiftness until lvl 70. I aggree that, for soloing and pvp, natures swiftness is better than totem of wrath, you had might as well spend the one point and grab the only useful buff for the fire totem and contribute a little bit more to any groups he has along the way.
I spec in and out of Totem of Wrath. It looks good at first, but sometimes it seems a waste. Most of the people it is designed to help are at or near the hit cap already by the time they are raiding, and an extra few % of crit doesn't amount to a huge benefit I've found (again, because everyone at that gear level has a large crit % already). Any more, I prefer a 40/0/21 build since I get more use out of NS than ToW. Of course, this works for me and my guild is happy with it. YMMV.
