I love hiking here. You can hike for miles and it seems different each time. You can hike to/from Squaw Peak from this area, which is a pretty nice hike. And you can go underneath the 51 and poke around the hills on the other side.
It's easy to get lost in your head on these trails, which is one reason I go hiking. But people should be careful not to get literally lost- we had to help a lady find her way back one day around sundown since she indeed got lost.
If there are any Camelback types, you can't really notice because the park is huge and is easy to get away from them.
Beautiful park.. I wish people would stop being d-bags and pick up after themselves (and their dogs!) though.
I had to edit this because I just remembered the time we found a little kit that contained rollies and a pipe on one of the picnic tables. Threw it in the trash, but when we were done I peeked into the can and someone had swiped it. I'd rather rate it down 1/2 a star, but that's not possible.
