Needed a workout, but something fairly short. Up Bursera, where one lady decided her music needed to be loud enough for everyone in a quarter mile radius to hear. Felt warm on the second Bursera climb, but there was a breeze once I reached National. East on National, then I had to decide which Lost trail to descend. I opted to come down Ruins, making for a slightly shorter loop. Some vegetation was recently trimmed back from Ruins, but whoever did it left the cut branches on the trail. I tossed the larger ones off to the downhill side. The four new signposts in the wash now have “Lost Ranch” trail stickers. No stickers at the junction with Pyramid though. Very dry out there.
