** I've not marked this as leaders permission required, but remember we'll be moving fast and aim to do it in under 9-9.5 hours**
This will be a long and sternuous hike but an easy scramble across all these peaks. Primarily aimed to bag all these peaks.
If i can get another leader- we might aim to do a car shuttle and a key exchange. Or else it will be an out and back. We'll pack light and move fast on this one.
Below is the trail that i plan to take based on an earlier report from 2017 by Bret Dyson
