Headed up Marcos De Niza. Despite the warm temps, there was a pleasant breeze. Followed it all the way to the new official end, then headed down towards the start of National. Made my way over to Javelina Canyon, and took that all the way down. No breeze at that point though. I like that trail, other than the last half mile— not sure why I don’t hike it more often. Someone must have had a fun time out there, because I passed a towel, bra, and shirt discarded along the edge of the trail. Once at that trailhead, I headed up Beverly Canyon and took the recently designated Beverly-Pima Connector trail back to Pima Canyon. Again, nothing new, just renaming of old trails. Good loop for an easy workout.
