This is a Premier Route. To claim an FKT on this route, you must meet a high standard of documentation and verification. See details here: https://fastestknowntime.com/premier-routes.
Admin note: Only the "ascent" and "round trip" variations are considered "Premier routes" by FKT, not the "sea to summit" variation. The current round trip FKT by Tyler Andrews was set on the Mweka route.
Mount Olympus (2917 m) is the highest peak in Greece, and of course a mythical place.
Mt. Shasta (14,162') is this northern-most 14er in California. The standard route climbs from Bunny Flats at 6,880' to the Sierra Club cabin at Horse Camp (7,900'), and from there up Avalanche Gulch to the summit. The current and previous FKTs were timed from Horse Camp.
