I live right across the street from the mesa, which is awesome! Its like having it in my own back yard. I go for sunrise a lot. It features nearly panoramic mountain views, as well as a view of a lot of the valley, which is cool when the lights are on and all twinkling. It is an easy hike...a tiny tiny bit steep and it is gravel , but not scary at all. No extreme drop offs or narrow walkways. Well worth it especially if you are in the neighborhood. Its free. It only takes a few min to get up to the top. If u walk the entire thing its over two miles i think? They have mile markers. Also there r benches at neat overlooks. No shade though!!! Avoid on super hot days. Also its much windier up there than ground level. So if its a windy day, be prepared for very very strong winds up there. Highly reccommend at least once.
