text: I sort of kind of really really wanted to like this park, but pulling in it clearly was going to be the lesser of all Phoenix 'mountains.' \n\nIt's not a big place and in some places it's littered with garbage and broken bottles, I even saw a dirty diaper. Listen, there is nowhere in the world that anyone wants to see a dirty diaper, FYI. I don't even want to see it in a garbage can, much less in the middle of NATURE. \n\nThere is also a horse corral near so you get that lovely aroma along with hoof prints everywhere. It gets more peaceful and beautiful the higher up you get, but I was even sort of discouraged from HIKING by one of the riding guys. I thought those hills were for hiking. Apparently not.\n\nIt can be pretty, it's easy to hike and there are a lot of pretty rocks, but if you want something that will take your breath away you might want to go to Camelback or Superstition, etc.
