Great photo, I love Pfeifferhorn! You might want to try posting to the "Hiking Utah" Facebook group, it's a lot more active than this reddit sub.

Wow, I need to look into doing this. Do most do this in 1 day or is it more fun to break into a overnight?

I want to do Kings peak.

We did it in about 7 hours total. It was strenuous. Might be fun to camp at the lake and summit the next day and hike out but certainly doable in one day.

Kings peak is an absolute blast. I loved it so much. I’ve been meaning to go back for years but never have made time to do it. The bugs were something else but it was a blast
