It's warmer at this lower elevation.  The sun has set into the clouds rolling in from the west; monsoonal moisture is returning.  The trail usually seems to go forever in this last stretch, but less so this trip.  I'm making good time.  I recognize the terrain to the north when I am near the trailhead, as that is where I started my "epic loop".
