Hello!

Anyone know the FKT of BMC ? It is said to be one of the toughest in the east to Mt. Mitchell 12.3m (from Bowlens Creek)

The FKT or what I believe is the FKT. Start at Bolens creek, and climb the 10 peaks, exit trail at Mt. Mitchell parking, touch rail at Observation deck. 2:48:10 distance 11.4m.

I did the out and back. 5:43:39 22.8m total gain 7,172 +- 14k

Brutal trail lots of scrambling but amazing nonetheless.
