A slightly warmer night, but luckily a noticeably warmer morning. We don't sleep in quite as much and break camp.

Heading back is simple, only a few liters of water to carry, most of our food eaten, etc. It's all uphill but very gentle and a known quantity. I enjoy the lighting, we check out the cowboy dam / ice skating rink, then get to our vehicle around 1:40pm. No data, but I can make a call and confirm 60 is open again, woot. Drive back is uneventful, I feel like I'm way more likely to die on the 101 loop than any backcountry scrambling.

We ate well (an extra pound of potato chips for the cold etc) so aren't super hungry on exit. We push on and our post hike dinner is Pad Thai Cafe in Glendale. Much better than Jalapenos heh.
