The usual criticm I level at many trip itineraries is they are all about the journey and ironically not the destinations they are so excited about. Each of those zones you are going to be visiting has so much in the way of interesting features that many experienced backcountry users might spend a whole week in just one or two. Basins with several lakes that at best you might visit sections of shoreline of just a couple lakes on a given morning. So with that itinerary you'd hardly get to know those places and mostly be spending your days coping on the strenuous routes.
