Later kickoff for the Steeler game so I went out to get another quick hike in. Started just after 6am and hiked the first 45 minutes in the dark with a headlamp. When I left my house in Mesa, there was a downpour of rain, and a little thunder and lightning on top of that. By the time I was past the 101 on I-10, the roads were dry. It was cloudy for first 2 hours, but then the sun came out the last 2 hours.

From the rodeo parking lot, I took the Coldwater Trail to the Gadsden, then headed back on the Butterfield Trail to the parking lot. did a couple spurs off of the loop to hike some sections of trails and to add a little bit of mileage. Finished up in 4 hours and was home by noon.
