This will be my 1st "official" led hike for the group.  I am mostly a solo hiker or lead with 1 or 2 friends.        So I apologize if I screw up any part of description.

The plan now is going up Zealand Trail, passing Z Hut. which should be around 2 hrs. and up the Twinway to Zealand Mtn.another 2.5 hours  continuing on to set up camp at Guyot campsite. another hour or two.

NOTE CHANGE IN ITINERARY...

DUE TO LTD RESPONSE I HAVE CHANGED THE OVERNIGHT TO GALEHEAD HUT.

So I would do the Bonds on the next day and then return via the same way as the ascent.

I kind of think right now setting up camp at that time and then go to Bond & Bondcliff & then the next day leave camp early leaving full packs at camp and then bag West Bond return to Guyot pick up packs & return out via the same way.

I attempted to do the Bonds which are my final of the 48 last week but I lost my glasses and contact lenses between Liberty and Garfield. 

Here's hoping some fireworks views may be sigted the night of the 3rd but deep in the Pemi probably not.

Meeting at 8am Saturday the 3rd.
