Absolutely perfect day on the trail .I don’t think I’ve ever seen South Mountain greener than it is right now with a handful of scattered wildflowers.

Got out for a hike with my oldest son and his wife, in town from NC. The location of the Bursa TH has changed since the last time I hiked here.

We attacked this balloon loop CCW, hitting up the steady climb on Pyramid Trail to the National. After a break atop Goat Hill we made our way down what I think used to be called the Eliminator Trail (Now part of the Prospector Loop). First time on the trail and was surprised by the lack of switchbacks.

Pretty quiet out there with only a handful of hikers.

Perfect day for a hike. The mountain is really green from all the recent rains.

Late afternoon hike. Up Ruins, east on National, Goat Hill, then down Pyramid. Occasional sprinkles. A little warm, but there was a decent breeze a lot of the way. More and more downed saguaros, barrels, and ocotillo.
