Hot! STUPID HOT!. Temp was 85ish and 71 dewpoint.  I got heat exhaustion, and rhabdomyolysis for my accomplishment of what will be recorded as a FKT for this trail, I imagine not for long. It will be beat quite handily I am sure. It's not a hard trail. Don't run it in the summer.  Springtime, with the right weather, someone will do it in under 8 hours easy.  
It's remote - very remote.  I did see slight sign of previous foot traffic, but very very little of it. Don't expect to see people, have cell reception, or find water after mile 18 (which I did know and had adequate hydration with me). 
All in all - a great lesson, and potentially my retirement ultra-run. Things got a little dicey out there. Did it solo, and I don't do well with heat anyways. 
Fenix 5S died, but had Garmin Inreach Explorer + with me, so track is accurate. 
Glad to help out any future attempters with info to FKT this. I left it wide open.
