My first time hiking in the Northern part of the Sonoran Preserve; I like it! I usually hike in the McDowell portion of the park, but I'm slowly recovering from a hurt ankle, and decided this was just the right speed for me. Nothing too difficult today, just some flat trails and a quick summit up Brown's Mountain. I was really impressed with all of the trails up here and how beautiful it was. The summit had great views of the entire valley and just the right amount of challenge. Not too crowded either once you get away from the trailhead. I may have to return here soon and try out my mountain bike. Great facilities as usual for Scottsdale parks. The bathrooms are wonderful and don't stink!

I'll have to check out the other trails in the area.
