Doing research for Great Range, final review. Learned that in 2005, Backpacker Magazine named the Great Range, the third hardest day hike in America

From my research, it takes anywhere from 15 to 20 something hours to go from Rooster Comb trailhead, along the range, and back via Phelps Trail to the Garden trailhead. Then, if you don’t have a vehicle parked at both trailheads, you walk a couple miles down the road to your vehicle, or more likely, you collapse and die of exhaustion.
