I think I just posted a new women's FKT. Yesterday (August 7,2015) RD Jenkinkson and I completed a standard hut traverse (Carter--> Lonesome) in under 16 hours. After a nice evening and short sleep at Carter with Dave & his croo, we headed out and started the chrono just after 4am and took Madison Gulf up to the ridge. We had good (if not very humid) weather, though after a few days with rain, the northern Presis were pretty slippery and treacherous. Arrived at Lonesome before nightfall and enjoyed a warm welcome from Will & his croo and a refereshing dip in the lake.

Let me know if there are any questions or if there has been another, faster time!
