Started at the bottom of the Scorpion Trail from the Bush Highway and did a clockwise loop on that, Wild Horse, and Bush Lite West and East Trails. The gnat activity was much higher than the day before at South Mountain, not sure why that is exactly. Only saw bikers and one trail runner the entire time. I hiked at bit of a faster pace than I normally do on Sundays, which was helped by the pretty easy terrain on these trails, so I was done kind of early.

When I got back to the car, the Bush Highway was crazy busy, but only in the north/west bound direction to the Beeline. I found out when I got that this was due to the fatal car crash that occurred that morning on 87 near Fountain Hills. It was tricky trying to get out to head the other way, but not too bad.
