@ 4.0 miles 2hrs I came to the junction with Columbine Sprg Tr and an undocumented trail from John's Meadow
As I was photographing the sign a hiker was coming up this trail. He said he was coming from Forsee Trailhead and was making a loop out of the day's hike, sounds like a future trip to me!
This line drawing:
gives a thumbnail sketch of most of the trails in the SGW, including the unmaintained stretch of trail from Johns Meadow to Manzanita Spring (where you took the photo of the trail sign). There are several other abandoned but followable (some only semi-followable) trails* that aren't shown. Some time I'll have to make up a map or something.

*Abandoned trails of the SGW:
1. Johns Meadow to Manzanita Spring
2. Upper Momyer Creek Trail (section from jct w/ Alger Creek Trail to San Berd. Pk Divide)
4. Lodgepole Spring to Fish Creek Saddle
5. Lodgepole Spring to Lodgepole Saddle (aka Zahniser-Lake Saddle)
6. Old Lower Dollar Lake Trail (very difficult to find)
7. Old Upper Dollar Lake Trail
Other routes of potential interest:
1. Abandoned road from Aspen Grove to Fish Creek Meadows
2. Abandoned road from Heartbar Ranger Station to Fish Creek
3. Abandoned road that connects the above road with Fish Creek Track
4. Fish Creek Track (Hwy 38 to Aspen Grove)
6. "Along the Flume" Track _________________ Hiking? Aw, gee, do I have to?

Matt, a couple of years ago, I hiked that loop unintentionally because I had a navigation "oops" at the trail sign you photographed. As I recall, on the day of my hike, the post was there but the signs were missing. The silver lining: I discovered John's Meadow.
