Here is a list of people who have logged climbs of some of the SD 7ers on LOJ. A few have climbed 7, but none have climbed all 8 of the ranked plus named ones.
Thanks for sharing the link. In April, 2015, I went out to Crows Nest Peak to complete the final "7000 club" peak on my list. Unfortunately, I got stuck in the snow driving off Boles Canyon Road onto FSR377.1E and wound up spending all my time digging out. Obviously it was not a good choice for a time to explore there. One of these days I hope to get back and complete this group.
I did the eight 7000-fters during one day, summer 2018. (and Little Devils tower). I can really recommend that trip!
I reached Crooks tower, Bear Mountain and Terry Peak by car.
Hiking order: Sylvan Peak, Black Elk Peak, Little Devils tower, Bear Mountain, Odakota Mountain, Green Mountain, Crows Nest Peak, Crooks Tower, Terry Peak
I started at midnight and it took about 14,5 hrs.
Sylvan peak was tough to do in the dark...
Lots of deer on the way up on Black Elk and mountain goats on Little Devil.
I bushwacked up on Green Mountain which is not to recommend because of all the fallen trees.

Peakbagger list for the 8 over 7 club
The peakbaggers website also has a more recent updated list of those who've done the 8 peaks.
