Temp started at 74, ended at 89. Partly cloudy and steady s wind at 10-15 mph.
Pleasant hike along dry, easy to see trails. Only a few portions of the hike had vegetation issues and they weren't severe. There wasn't much wildlife or bird activity except right at the beginning when I spotted three Axis deer with some White tail deer. Otherwise, the wind kept most of the birds low to the ground.
There were quite a few grasshoppers still out. Purple thistle as well as a few wild flowers were being occupied by various insects.
All in all, a nice, quiet, relaxing hike with a cooling wind blowing constantly.
