I would guess the Laura/Lillian route.... Hmmm....
I don't know exactly where that starts so were I to, the early start idea would be somewhat problematic.
I seem to recall previous TNAB trip reports where people couldn't all find the actual starting point and ended up all over the place.

Yea TNAB isn't a place to be discovering new routes you are unfamiliar with... For Alta plan on taking my time (whatever that is depending on the mood) to get up there. I hit Dickerman this weekend so it will probably be Alta next.
I tend to do my dumpster dive/Wednesday afternoon hikes faster since often the destination isn't anything all that new, there is less time, and conditioning is a part of that too.

 TNAB knee carnage getting extra pretty. The knee still works though, so no complaints

Well done! I wish I could have been there, especially for the "rewards"...

Did I not reward you enough for your valiant domestic efforts, my love?

I discovered TNAB awhile ago, but haven't had a chance to go yet. You guys always talk about how fast you hike, but I'd like to get a feel for how fast you really go by comparing times on a common hike.
I hate to use it as a benchmark, but Mt. Si is the only hike I can think of that I've done that I'm sure you all have done, and that I remember how long it took me.
My best time (up only) for Mt. Si was about 1 hour 10 min (probably came down in about the same time). I was in a little better shape then than I am now, but its a good reference still.
Also, is there anywhere that you list your upcoming hikes? I've only see mention of TNAB in Trip Reports, which only has information on completed hikes.

I think TNAB takes an hour up SI in the snow but that may be an overestimate... 
My best time of an hour and 31 minutes about a month ago at nearly 48 years old and 35 lbs heavier than I should be.... Arrgh...

An hour and 10 minutes is plenty fast, I think. I know I can't get up Si that quick.
PM Mesahchie Mark for upcoming hikes.
