My Strava from the Mountaineer's route last year also shows 8.87 miles as a distance from the trailhead to the summit; I followed a similar path as BFR (i.e. South East Side of LBS lake). I did get slightly turned around on the one stream crossing but that does not explain the additional ~3.5 miles.
I was using an Strava on an iPhone as my tracking device and my path looks way more jagged than BFR's.
Will try again on Friday and see what happens (using Strava Premium so we will see).
Are there any specific distance / recording settings in Strava that I should be aware of?
PS - thanks for all the suggestions on alternate routes
