Mt. Pinos, Sawmill & Grouse Mountains

First time hiking this trail.  It was much nicer than I expected.   Almost entirely through pine forest with cool breeze.  We ventured out despite of 40% chance of thunder and rain forecast but the weather remained fine.   No bugs in Mt. Pinos area but plenty of them in Sawmill and Grouse area.

Peak signs from all mountains were gone missing.  Picked up some trash on the way back.
