My point was that Hunting out only 6 miles from Base Camp without the need to stay the night is no problem. 20 miles out would be different of course, Kudos and Full Respect for those who do Hunt out that far.
Back to covering a lot of Ground. Just a couple years ago I hiked right past lots of folks with full overnight packs as I was climbing Pikes Peak Via Barr Trail. Roughly 13 miles uphill Bottom to top in only one full day.
And no I did not cheat by riding the Incline Rail up Mount Manitou, I started from the bottom Trail Head. This was the 4th time I hiked this Trail since I was a teenager. I have to admit it was much harder this last time, age is indeed creeping up on me.
