Is there a speed record for a Stanley-Burgner Car to Car from snaowcreek?

Anybody out there Know this or know who would know this?

Hi William & All,

I am by no means authoritative or a records keeper, but I can help a little bit. I have climbed in and around Leavenworth, the Stuarts, etc., since the early 1970s. By that time I personally knew of two parties that had done the route car to car (Snow Lakes Parking Lot) in one long day. I climbed the route once in the same fashion (car to car-SLPL) in the early 1990s. My partner and I did it in about 15 hours if memory serves me right. We were not really going for speed, but we did keep up a steady gait on the trail. We had day packs. If we had focused on speed I know we would have knocked off several hours. But we had a good time. So one can take from my posting that the challenge has been around for several decades and is within the realm of a team of ordinary climbers. Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Hey thanks for you response Bob.
Ya me and partner just had a similar experience. We just did a car to car of the Stanley burgner and completed it in 14:55. We weren't activity trying to go for speed but rather just wanted to focus on staying moving and efficient. I definitely think that it can be done faster. Thanks for letting me know about how many people try to do it in such fashion.

Hi William,

Glad to help. You and your partner did well.

Cheers,

Bob
