Ran the Yamnuska loop car to car in 1:02:46. This was a race pace effort. I had been thinking for awhile about whether it's possible to do this loop in under an hour. Got close but not quite. Something to strive for next year!
This is a very fun loop to run fast, asides from a few sketchy sections on the decent - The scree field is not quite what it used to be! Once you get onto the scree_to_sign segment you can really rip it - just be careful not to catch your toes on any rocks or roots at high speed.
This is a very busy trail so if you want to do it fast I would advise to do it really early in the morning or very late, preferably on a weekday. I started at 7:20 am on a Thursday and barely saw anyone which was nice.
