Basically did the Mormon Loop with a little extra. Started about 5:30pm. Finally went up to Two Peaks this time. The trail is almost non-existant at first, and is very steep. Awesome views from the top though. Really didn't feel confident in going back down the way I came up so I just sort of scrambled down the south side into the wash instead. Met up with the National Trail and went through Hidden Valley, then finished the Mormon Loop.

Met a nice gentleman on the little hill at the top of the Mormon Trail coming back down. We stopped and chatted about the park for a good 10 minutes. Cloudy and breezy tonight, and the sunset was beautiful. Another wonderful evening at South Mountain!
