10-12 days, but could be done faster, but I would split it into 2 or even
3 trips so you get to spend some time exploring each area.
Most of the areas you want to visit offer more than what you can see in one
or even 3 days!
Do the 60 Lakes-Gardiner-Arrow Lakes-Bench Lake-Twin Lakes in one trip.
The Taboose-Cartridge-Lakes Basin-Dumbbell-Amph Basin in another.
Then you can do the North Lake to South Lake via Lamarck Col another trip.

Maverick is right. Split it up. You could easily spend a week on the 60 Lakes Basin trip. So much to see in all the places you'll pass. They're all different trips, and motoring through will make you miss a lot.

Mav,

Great thought on making it into sections. I'm gonna spend some time tonight and see if I can make it into 2 one week trips.
