If you are planning to do it again next year, I could possibly be up for it, when I get the feeling of endless trail from photographers point on out of my head. I would love to get this done in one push, especially now I know what to expect on the section after Bonney.
I have skied lots of Utah, a sliver of Nevada but never Wyoming. I am heading up there this weekend to climb the Middle Teton. The death march you guys were able to endure gives me hope that Kings Peak can be done in a day this September. Happy Trails.
Great job with the report and the pictures. Just going into Bonny and out in a day was a KILLER. What you guys did was a KILLER + HELL. Seriously, nice work boys. I am in for next year.
We saw you guys run/walk/drag yourselves past our camp in upper Titcomb Basin on your way out and figured you were pulling a day trip of Gannett. My feet hurt just reading about it! Congrats guys.
I didn't climb Gannett on this trip. Had an awesome week+ long stay in Titcomb climbing Henderson, Helen, Spearhead Pinnacle, Three Brothers, Sacagawea, American Legion & Great Needle. I was with a party of 4 others... maybe you talked to one of my teammates? One in our party required rescue high on Sacagawea Thursday/Friday.

Great ReportI would love to do Gannett soon, I hope to get up there before it starts snowing. Your report gives me confidence that I can do it as a day hike.

It was nice...I mean who doesn't enjoy a little spooning before a long day in the mountains?

Re: It was nice...From the floor I thought all that noise on the bed was just the sound of two guys snoring. Silly me...

Re: It was nice...That bed was super loud. Everything in that room seemed to be LOUD. Maybe it was just the frequent (every 10 minute) bathroom breaks taken by Matt.
