Good loop in the Sierra Ancha and have not been on some sections up there in many years. Specifically the rim trail was part I had not seen since before the fire. I remember it as a Ponderosa park on the rim but unfortunately the fire really did a number on the area. That said there has been some recent trail work on parts of the loop that made for some enjoyable tread thanks to @AnchaGladtrailz for the tough work.

Of course did a drive by to the Aztec Peak and the tower before doing a bit of off trail getting back to the rim and eventually liking up with the Rim Trail. Followed the Rim Trail until we were able to circle back to the Abbey Way Trail and complete the loop.
