You only need a continuous conductor to the primary grounding
electrode. You can connect "bonding jumpers" with any listed method as
long as each path is using the required size wire.
This is from the NEC handbook

(extra credit if you catch the absurd thing in the code) ;-)
ummm, the pic shows an Ufer ground in addition to ground rods?
You can have all the electrodes you want
Shucks. Now I have to wait and see who gets the extra credit. Best I
can tell, my house uses the Ufer ground. Haven't seen or found ground
rods.
