This is a fantastic adventure in a part of the Sierras that is less popular for FKTs despite being a stone's throw from Yosemite. This route is included in the Sierra Club SPS peaks list and so does see a lot of ascents, however does not appear to have been previously a focus for in a day and speed attempts.
