Was just planning for the ascent but enjoyed the route so decided to go back down too. While there is some annoying manzanita between Jobs lil sis and the summit proper, I didn't find it too bad and was able to avoid most of it by staying directly on top of the ridge. Accidentally went down the extra steep variation off of Jobs lil sis but tied back into the easier gully pretty quickly. While on the uphill I chose to stay in the creek bed, on the down I scree and sand surfed the majority of the way which actually made for pretty quick travel. I did run through some sagebrush in the last .5 mile or so that got my allergies acting up and I barely finished before breaking out in hives and sneezing lol
