USERY MOUNTAIN REGIONAL PARK REVIEWS
I absolutely loved this park! It was gorgeous! There are trails everywhere for biking and hiking. The desert ecosystem is mesmerizing and this sits at the base of beautiful mountains. There are several covered picnic areas and playground equipment for the kids. The best part of the day was being able to view the fantastic sunset. I included some pictures, but it hardly does justice to the beauty of seeing it in person. Enjoy!
a wonderful place to do some hiking meditation! very peaceful (if you go early enough when the guns at the range aren't going off)! if you are itchin' to get a close up look of different varieties of cacti, this is a great place to do so! went on the 7+ mile pass mountain trail. lots of lovely wildflowers and wildlife!
Great park in northeast Mesa for hiking, trail biking, and camping. A beautiful slice of the Sonoran desert with a lot of diverse flora and fauna to see. There are trails for all difficulty levels, Wind Cave being one of the most popular. I recommend the trail that goes all the way around the mountain; I believe it is called Pass Mountain trail. Great place to visit, hike, bike if you are in the area.

HAWES TRAIL SYSTEM ENTRANCE REVIEWS
Trail is about 7 miles and pay attention to navigation as you can easily end up on another trail. Everything seems to link back up but will make it much longer. Moderate hike with some narrow paths. Saw more bikers than hikers. Pretty scenery, park across street & bring plenty of water.
Beautiful hike, pretty long at 7 miles and the trail pretty skinny with navigating the mountain bikers. I saw several areas where if timing was off there would be a accident. We went at the end of March, lots of flowers blooming, it was awesome.
Always more miles than listed, closer to 7.4. Otherwise good hike, lots of mtn bikers.

LOST DUTCHMAN STATE PARK REVIEWS
WOW. This is such a beautiful state park. The views get more incredible as you go up to flat iron peak. When the sun is setting, it lights up this park in such a surreal way. Definitely a highlight of visiting the Phoenix area. Will definitely return!
Great hiking and camping at the edge of the Superstition Mountains. Campsites mostly of decent size and private. Hiking trails never disappoint providing great views and challenges. The grand daddy hike is to the top of the formation known as The Flatiron. Restrooms are clean with a lots of hot water. Camp hosts keep the place neat and tidy.
Hiked with friends Sunday and the weather could not have been more pleasant and perfect! Loved the cloud cover and mild fall season weather! Easy to get in the park and if you are a veteran or retired military, cost to get in is $5 and if not then it is $10.
