Got out for a decent workout hike and even managed to start a little earlier than usual even though it’s a school day. Headed up Bursera, which seems to have had some recent trail “work”, if that’s what you want to call it. Mostly just breaking up rocks and scattering them on the trail.

East on National, side trip to Goat Hill. Saw one snake (patchnose?) just below Goat Hill. Passed six women, all wearing bright pink sun hats.

Headed down Pyramid, which surprisingly only had one other hiker on it. Warm by the finish, and rather sunny for a supposedly cloudy day.
