Amazing report Neil~! Sounds like you made the right decision with such a short time frame and weather changing to make your objective Big Interior. Nine Peaks will be there for another trip! It is definately easier to do in the early summer as a backpacking trip and highly recommended - I hope you get there some other time!!
